Filming in court

King Street Courtroom 5

Media representatives can apply to film criminal sentencing proceedings and final decisions in civil matters under the Court's Media Recording and Broadcasting of Court Judgments Policy and Part 9A of the Supreme Court Act 1970​.

Information alert

Please complete an application form and return to the Media Manager at least 48 hours before the date of the proposed filming, unless notice of the judgment to be delivered was given within a shorter period of time. 

Permission to film is granted by the Chief Justice, who may make further orders about the use of footage. Any footage can only be used to accompany media reports about that particular matter, and cannot be used as overlay on unrelated stories.
