To use this link, you may need to download software to use the platform's videoconferencing features. Participants are directed to test their videoconference setup in advance of the conference-including their ability to access the link above. Defense counsel shall assist the defendant in testing his or her videoconference capability so that the defendant can participate by video conference if that is feasible.
See Microsoft, Donmhad Microsoft Teams (last visited January 27, 2021), https://www.microsoft.com/enus/microsoft-365/microsoft-teams/download-app.
Users who are unable to download the Microsoft Teams application may access the meeting through an internet browser, although downloading the Microsoft Teams application is highly recommended. When you successfully access the link, you may be placed in a "virtual lobby" until the conference begins. Participants should also ensure that their webcam, microphone, and headset or speakers are all properly configured to work with Microsoft Teams.

Please note that participants who access the Teams meeting using an internet browser may only be able to view one participant at a time.
Members of the press, public, or counsel may access the conference's audio using the following credentials:

The Court requests that members of the public consider accessing the conference by telephone, rather than through the Microsoft Teams videoconference platform. While the proceeding is accessible to the public through the Microsoft Teams videoconference platform, the inclusion of many participants on the videoconference platform can reduce the quality of the video stream for the parties and their respective counsel.
SO ORDERED.
