ABOTA FTL presents: Zoom Jury Trials- Who Wants to make Broward Legal History? Mitch Chester & Jeff Adelman Discuss

ABOTA Fort Lauderdale President Jeff Adelman and long-time ABOTA member Mitch Chester discuss the tremendous progress that has been made in the Broward County Courthouse through the adopting by Chief Judge Jack Tuter and others in the judiciary of technology. Through several tests done on the Zoom platform including a real jury selection with real jurors from the Broward community, an opportunity is now available for 2-4 day trial to take place as early as September 2020! If you are a trial lawyer and are interested (and have the consent of your opposing counsel) you should contact Jeff Adelman at [e-mail] and you could be the first Zoom jury trial to take place in Broward County. Mitch and Jeff discuss what has happened since the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted our lives in March with the Courts, and how a Zoom Jury Trial would work. We welcome your feedback.
