WMH is honored to represent a coalition of organizations pushing for more transparency given the tremendous public import of the first ever criminal trial of a former President.

“Judge Zayas was responding to a request for public transcripts filed last week by a New York lawyer, Jim Walden, on behalf of a civic group and the news website New York Focus.

‘With current law restricting the broadcasting of trial proceedings and courtroom space for public spectators very limited, the release of the daily transcripts on the court system’s website is the best way to provide the public a direct view of the proceedings in this historic trial,’ Judge Zayas wrote in his statement.”
