Media Requests

Media representatives are required to request permission to record in a courtroom. The request must be made in writing to the judge or magistrate presiding over the court proceedings using the Media Request Form. Media applications must be made as far in advance as possible but not less than 30 minutes prior to the courtroom session to be recorded. For more information, please see Court Rule 7: Media.  

It is the discretion of the judge or magistrate to grant or deny the request.

Individual case updates can be found on the Clerk of Court website. General inquiries for information by the media are handled by the Court Administrator’s Office, which can be reached at 419-245-1949.
