for the Armed Forces

Washington, D.C. 

In Re:

CONDUCT OF THE JUNE                                      NOTICE
HEARINGS BY TELECONFERENCE
(UPDATE)

     On May 5, 2020, the Court provided notice of its readiness to conduct hearings in a social distancing-compliant manner, and likewise provided notice of its consideration of holding the June hearings by teleconference.

     Upon consideration of the matter and in view of the continuing public health considerations, the Court has determined that the June hearings will be conducted by teleconference. The Clerk will coordinate with counsel sitting first chair in these cases to pass along the necessary communications access information and procedural matters to conduct the hearings by teleconference.

     The Court again thanks the bar and the parties in the impacted cases for their continued flexibility in the scheduling and conduct of these hearings.

                                                                                  For the Court,

                                                                             /s/ Joseph R. Perlak
