Findings do not indicate any legal barrier to the use of television for non-evidentiary proceedings, and the use of television had no impact on the sentences imposed. The use of television saves as much as $50,000 per year required for transporting detainees for in-court arraignments and also reduces the risk of accidents or security breaches during transport. Court personnel report fewer disruptions of proceedings, and police report more time for patrol and speedier service of warrants. Weaknesses include the inconvenience of communications between client and attorney, the impracticality of the system for multiparty hearings, confusion about the defendant's option to be present in the courtroom, and the adjustment required of infrequent users of the system. The report recommends that the project be made permanent, that the Supreme Court adopt a permanent rule to govern the use of television in court proceedings, and that televised proceedings be implemented in other jurisdictions throughout Alaska. 7 tables.
