The Ninth Circuit continues to set the bar for its sister circuits in regard to the use of technology at oral argument. The Ninth Circuit now has videos of some oral arguments available on its web site. The Federal Circuit, while being the nation’s technology court, has not yet achieved that milestone. Meanwhile, at least one circuit court (Tenth Circuit) requires filing a motion to the court in order to request a recording of an oral argument.
Here is a link to a video of a recent Ninth Circuit oral argument video concerning copyright issues: [Larry Montz v. Pilgrim Films & Television, Inc.].
The Ninth Circuit also has its own YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/9thcirc
