"The purpose of these meetings is to afford court users an opportunity to ask questions of resident judges as to court procedures and processes, on a non-case specific basis. Please be aware that we cannot answer policy-related questions. ... You will not be able to speak in the meetings – participant microphones will be muted – but you will be able to submit supplementary questions via a ‘Q & A’ facility. The administrator of the webinar will triage the questions and the judges we will address as many of them as possible."
