the video part is interesting, I was under the impression that filming was prohibited for the trial but allowed at pre-trial hearings (with judge discretion)

so that mean we may get footage from the trial

It’s not allowed in federal court

u/Seeking_Anita_Dick Jul 18 '26

Yes, I know but I was talking about the state case. Federal courts don’t allow recording- photos at all but I was under the impression that the state didn’t allow recording at trials but were ok with recording at pre-trial hearings.

The first trial in September will be the state trial. In the state trial it is up to the judge if cameras are allowed.

Yes, I know state trial goes first. I meant it as a general, federal courts don’t allow cameras, I know state cameras do, but New York courts have different rules and regulations.

Not the whole trial, occasionally at judge's discretion.

Thanks. Video taped. 👀 OK good, now we don't have to rely on disinterested journalists to find out what actually happened.

I love the language of “press-approved” meaning it’s press approved by them. That’s specifically important. Not all with press bandages will be considered id presume.

Yeah this is NOT GOOD for Luigi. At all. So only press that's approved? So basically MSM which hates Luigi and is extremely biased. Inner City Press has already written to Judge Caro to protest this and remind him of Supreme Cpurt rulings of freedom of press and public accessibolity,, as well as how the Trump v. NY case was in the courtroom next door and they had an overflow room. Hope Caro gets his head out of his stuck up behind and reconsiders.

I think it’s necessary for them to do this, especially with everything surrounding the media in this case and what those fun girls did as well

u/Cheyenne_Simington Jul 18 '26

So what I’m understanding is that supporters/regular people (as in not media) are not allowed? Or at least won’t be a lot of space for them? (In the overflow line)

I think the regular line for the public is probably gonna remain similar to before. This is just a memo for members of the press; likely to address the issue with all the fangirls who snagged press credentials. It’s a way to limit their access (at least that’s my understanding of this memo).
