Recording

Whenever there is an objection, always first clarify the nature of the objection and what exactly they are objecting to

Depending on the nature of the objections, suggest the solutions below.

Off the record portions

Video recording entirely

1. Give explanation:

We record everything in the main room of the Zoom meeting to mitigate human error
Break out rooms are not recorded
After the event, all “off the record” portions are discarded

2. Parties can turn off camera/microphone during off the record

3. Parties can go to break out rooms during off the record

4. If all other options have been exhausted:

Let them know this will delay the proceeding
Reach out to Event Support
~~We can create a new Zoom link and allow for the~~ ~~recording to be turned on and off in accordance with going on and off the record~~

We no longer offer this option. If a participant is still refusing at this point, please immediately contact Event Support.

1. Turn witness video off after swearing in

Stipulation language [after swear-in]: “Do both sides stipulate to continuing with this proceeding with the witness’s camera off?”

2. Manually redact the video after the event

Stipulation language: “Do both sides stipulate to the video being redacted so that only the audio is maintained?”

3. The video will not be used outside of transcript production

Stipulation language: “Do both sides stipulate that the video recording will not be distributed?”

4. Objecting party can lodge an official objection on the record and we can proceed

5. Objecting party refuses to proceed with any recording:

Inform Parrot Parrot Event Support immediately and await further instruction. You cannot turn off the recording feature.

Always remember: As a neutral third party, you must allow counsel to decide amongst themselves how to proceed when there is any objection. You are welcome to offer solutions if asked, but allow counsels to discuss together and come to a conclusion themselves.
