Presentation rules
For non-jury trials, Judge Amon requires proposed exhibits in a suitable binder and in electronic format one week before trial.
Non-Jury Trials Each party shall file with the Court: i. Copies of the proposed exhibits in a suitable binder and in electronic format.
The requirement is stated in an official standing order naming this judge.
In federal district-court civil proceedings, testimony is ordinarily taken in open court; remote contemporaneous testimony requires good cause in compelling circumstances and appropriate safeguards.
For good cause in compelling circumstances and with appropriate safeguards, the court may permit testimony in open court by contemporaneous transmission from a different location.
The requirement is stated in current official court rules and is attached at court scope, not as a personal preference.
Federal district courts may not permit courtroom photography or broadcasting during criminal judicial proceedings unless a statute or another federal rule provides an exception.
Except as otherwise provided by a statute or these rules, the court must not permit the taking of photographs in the courtroom during judicial proceedings or the broadcasting of judicial proceedings from the courtroom.
The requirement is stated in current official court rules and is attached at court scope, not as a personal preference.
Courtroom technology
Technology availability is separate from procedural permission and evidentiary admissibility.
Published opinion footprint
This does not mean the judge has no published opinions or no caseload. KYJ will only show opinion counts after transparent, source-linked CourtListener matching is available.
