Last year, during the pandemic, many courts in the United States went virtual for procedural hearings. Judge Roy Ferguson of the 394th Judicial Circuit Court of Texas, known for his technical prowess, was able to navigate attorney Rod Ponton through Zoom settings when the lawyer couldn't turn off his kitten filter.
Last month, attorney Rae Leifest entered one of Judge Ferguson's Zoom court meetings with a faculty audio set up. He sounded like a chipmunk! Fortunately, the judge knew exactly how to fix it.
