Unicorn Digital Courtroom (UDC) Remote Appearances
To appear remotely in confirmation, you will require a remote appearance participation link.
You can get your link one of two ways:
- Automatically receive an email from the Court using the email address you provided to the Court at time of case filing. If you have an appearance confirmation, please skip to Step 7.
- Self Check-in (see below). To register to appear remotely for a future hearing or check-in for today's hearing, please follow the Self Check-in steps below.
