Qué contiene
Resumen con IA Courts could allow children to testify from a different room instead of being in the same room as the person they are accusing. This change uses video and audio equipment so the courtroom can see and hear the child while the child can also see and hear the court. This helps protect young witnesses from being too upset to speak during a trial. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)1
Lea la explicación oficial (en inglés)
This bill relates to testimony by a minor witness using two-way, closed-circuit equipment. The bill provides that a court may protect a minor from trauma caused by testifying in the physical presence of a defendant where it would impair the minor’s ability to communicate, by ordering that the testimony of the minor be taken in a room other than the courtroom. The testimony will be televised by two-way, closed-circuit equipment with both audio and video feeds for listening and viewing in the courtroom. Current law does not specify that the closed-circuit H.F. _____ equipment have two-way capabilities.
