Online Hearings

Most counties are now conducting hearings by zoom (or some other video conferencing platform). At the time of your hearing, please enter the platform with your camera off and your microphone muted. There will likely be other matters on the docket, and the commissioner may call cases in any order. When your case is called, please turn your camera on but keep your microphone off unless instructed otherwise.

Friends and Family are not permitted to be on the platform with you. In Pierce County Family Law Matters, they may be able to observe using a different link (provided below).

NEVER appear with your children on zoom.
