 Louisiana court employs new videoconferencing software
 
 Oct 5, 2006
  by GV staff
The 14th Judicial District and Lake Charles City Court in Lake Charles, LA recently has come up with a new, efficient way to conduct arraignments. The Court recently began using WiredRed’s e/pop’s Web and videoconferencing software, which essentially links it to local jails via video arraignments.
Before this new system was deployed, the Court had to shuttle inmates back and forth, or a clerk would drive to the jail. But now, inmates and judges can see and hear each other in realtime during court proceedings.
“We’ve increased the amount of arraignments fivefold. Our Judges get more work done, and we’ve cut the cost of transportation and security for trips to and from the jail, thanks to e/pop,” said Tim Leger, MIS manager for the 14th Judicial District and Lake Charles City Court.
The e/pop software is installed on a standard PC server at the courthouse and connected to the jail remotely via frame relay. The conference session traffic is transmitted securely on the court’s private network, not publicly over the Internet.
The/pop Web and Video Conferencing includes multiparty video, VoIP, remote control, record and playback, plus complete desktop, application/document and presentation sharing.
