Court Hearings to be Broadcasted Online

Starting in June, Russia’s Supreme Arbitrazh [Economic] Court will broadcast its hearings on the internet and place the video records on its web site. The video of Constitutional Court hearings will similarly be broadcasted. In contrast, Russia’s Supreme Court does not intend to broadcast its hearings because of possible detriment to the interests of parties. It is also notable that from July 1, 2010, courts of all instances must publish on their web sites the texts of their judgments. Currently, the judgments of general-jurisdiction courts are mostly unavailable to the public.
