Fourth Court to Begin Live Webcasts
Although I haven't seen an official announcement (or any publicity whatsoever), it looks as if the Fourth Court of Appeals will begin webcasting oral arguments through the St. Mary's University web site on March 5, 2008.
The Fourth Court would be the logical choice for expanding the webcasting program, considering that St. Mary's (also in San Antonio) provided all of the equipment and funding for the Texas Supreme Court pilot (previously discussed here, here, and here) and is presumably doing so again. Until the Legislature appropriates the necessary monies or more Texas law schools step up, we can expect the other 13 intermediate appellate courts and the Court of Criminal Appeals to stay blacked out.
3/4/08 Update: Sadly, it was too good to be true.
