      A lot of attorneys pushed for it to continue because it cuts down on travel particularly to rural areas. It’s helpful in civil litigation because it cuts down on travel fees to clients.

      It’s helpful in criminal and family law cases because those dockets often run long and people may have to wait hours to be seen. Being able to work or run errands while waiting for your case to be called makes the process less intrusive.
