What is the primary capability of CaseViewNet or similar tools in court proceedings?

• A. Static archival of recordings only, with no sharing.
• B. Real-time transcript streaming and exhibit sharing to authorized viewers, with remote access.
• C. Solely generating transcripts without exhibits.
• D. Replacing court reporters with automated transcripts.

Answer: (B)

CaseViewNet and similar tools are built to deliver live access to the court record as proceedings unfold. The core function is real-time streaming of the transcript as it’s created, so participants can read the exact words in real time. At the same time, exhibits presented in court can be shared to the same audience through the platform, with synchronization so viewers see the exhibit and the corresponding transcript together. Access is authenticated and controlled, allowing only authorized viewers—such as attorneys, parties, witnesses, or remote participants—to view from anywhere. This remote access and live sharing are what make these tools valuable in practice: they expand availability, speed up review, and keep everyone on the same page during the proceeding. It’s important to note that these tools complement the court reporter’s work rather than replace it; they provide delivery and display of the real-time record and exhibits, not just archival or automated transcription.
