10 On March 30, 2020, I issued Temporary General Order 2020-05 to authorize the
11 use of video and telephone conferencing under the Coronavirus Aid , Relief, and
12 Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"). On March 25, 2022 , I issued a new version of
13 that order-Amended Temporary General Order 2020-05 (the "Amended Order") -
14 which was effective for 90 days, or until June 23, 2022. I then extended the Amended
15 Order four times. However, with the recent passage of Public Law No. 118-3, the Court's
16 authority to use video and teleconferencing technologies in certain criminal proceedings
17 under § 15002(b) of the CARES Act will expire on Wednesday , May 10, 2023.
18 Accordingly, as Chief Judge, and under Section 15002(b)(1) of the CARES Act , I hereby
19 limit the effective period of the Amended Order such that it ends on May 10, 2023. At
20 the end of that day, the Amended Order will terminate.
21 DATED THIS 12th Day of April 2023.
