Allowing Cameras in the Court Room
The Court began allowing cameras in the courts in a pilot program in two courtrooms, one in Atlantic County and one in Bergen County, in 1979. The pilot expanded to all 21 counties in 1980 and became a permanent program in New Jerseys Supreme Court and Superior Court, including the Appellate Division, in 1981. ...
In most all courts camera are allowed if the attorneys and the judge agrees that it would be useful to have a camera in the court to use for later reference. Most of the time unless the court is a television series such as the well-known Judge Judy TV Court, the camera are merely the size of surveillance cameras. If cameras were mandatory in all courts it could have a pros and some cons such as everybody getting to watch the trial and making there own decision on what the verdict should be. It would also allow for the many court watchers all over America to see the cases that they would not be able to see if the court was a great distance away and they did not the have the time to go watch the trial in person.
