That’s totally fine, but you should treat the hearing as seriously as if you were in the courthouse.

 

It’s important to make a good impression when you’re in court. Here are some guidelines to follow:

  • Dress like you’re going to a job interview. 
  • Sit in front of a solid neutral background, if possible. 
  • Mute yourself when you’re not speaking to avoid background noise.
  • Use a headset or headphones with a built-in microphone 
  • Make sure you have all paperwork you might need to consult during the hearing in front of you
  • If you’re using a phone or tablet, try to prop it up securely.
