    Per Texas Office of Court Administration guidelines, in order to ensure that the public has reasonable notice of where to observe court proceedings conducted via Zoom video conferencing, the courts have Youtube channels available for viewing hearings. There is no requirement to keep the proceeding on YouTube after the completion of the hearing. It may be deleted immediately. Recording is not permitted and anyone doing so may be subject to contempt by the court.
