that was the dissent of justice breyer joined by justice ginsberg and sotomayor.it was divided on this issue of the access that judge walker wanted to permit, and then i guess as often the case in federal district courts, judge walker had something of a last word on the subject because he permitted the reporters to send tweets from the courtroom of the proceedings so it's an interesting issue that's developing in the federal courts, the use of the broadcast media. in the state courts, it's a lot more settled, and virtually all state courts allow the broadcasting in at least appellate courts. now, in practice, that doesn't happen too often first because i think there are not as many requests at the -- even at the appellate level. my experience in the supreme court of virginia was that the probably two criminal cases a year, maybe three at the most, would there be a request for a broadcast. in the state courts, there are very few trials broadcasting and this is something that we'll be discussing as a group here, the inherent difficulties and how quickly things can g
