Sup. Ct. R. D.C. 203
As amended through October 11, 2024
Sup. Ct. R. D.C. 203
COMMENT TO 2020 AMENDMENTS
Former section (b) addressing photography and broadcasts has been moved to Rule 201(g). The other provisions in this rule have been deleted because 1) section (a) concerning statements by courthouse personnel about pending cases should be and is addressed in the D.C. Courts' Comprehensive Personnel Policies; 2) section (c) concerning public statements by attorneys is addressed in Rule of Professional Conduct 3.6; and 3) section (d) was unnecessary because courts have inherent authority to address matters of trial and courtroom management on a case-by-case basis.
