These procedures are subject to change; this page will be updated accordingly.

The video streaming services for the District of New Mexico have been discontinued effective March 1, 2024.  The system was developed under the authority of the CARES Act, which permitted limited broadcasting of court hearings for public access; that authority no longer exists. 

Public live audio access (audio streaming) is still permitted at the presiding judge’s discretion for non-trial proceedings in civil and bankruptcy cases that do not involve witness testimony (JCUS broadcast policy change effective September 22, 2023). The policy permitting audio access does not extend to criminal proceedings; courts have discontinued use of virtual criminal proceedings, except as otherwise authorized.

NOTE:  The policy revision does not affect a judge's ability to allow parties and counsel to appear remotely by teleconference and videoconference.
