The state appellate courts of Pennsylvania have announced plans for the video or telephonic oral argument of appeals: The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania this afternoon posted this tweet announcing its plans to conduct its May 2020 oral argument session by videoconference.

Yesterday, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania issued an order announcing that on April 30, 2020 the court will begin hearing oral arguments by telephone.

And on Monday, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania issued an announcementstating that its “May 11–15, 2020 Oral Argument Session [will] Be Conducted Remotely Using Advanced Video Communication Technology” — which sounds quite fancy!
