CLCT conducts a number of conferences. In addition to the annual Court Affiliates Conference, we conduct an annual working conference entitled "The Privacy Implications of Electronically Accessible Court Records" with the support of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts.
CLCT also presents an annual Courthouse Construction Conference (for judges and administrators involved in major renovations or new courthouse construction). Additionally, CLCT hosts or assists with conferences from other organizations. We have hosted a joint National Institute of Justice/Department of Justice conference and training session on technology-augmented case presentation, the NIJ/CCIPS Digital Evidence Mock Trial, and a multi-day training program with the Administrative Office of the United States Court Defender Services Branch, for federal panel defense attorneys.
We also hold occasional major international conferences. In 2006, we conducted the International Conference on the Legal and Policy Implications of Courtroom Technology, articles from which were published in the William and Mary Bill of Rights Journal.
The Project regularly welcomes groups of all types for courtroom demonstrations. For example, the National Center for State Courts regularly sends groups from the United States and other countries to the courtroom. In January of 2010 we hosted a Chinese Delegation of legal professionals interested in courtroom technology and the American system of justice.
