The Denver Post: The Colorado Supreme Court on Tuesday told judges they can stop livestreaming court proceedings for the next 90 days — a move that directly contradicts state law and escalates an ongoing power struggle between the state’s highest court and its lawmakers, who have repeatedly mandated that most criminal court proceedings be streamed online for public viewing.

Chief Justice Monica Márquez wrote in a four-page directive that she believes the state constitution gives the Colorado Supreme Court the authority to set aside the 2023 law that requires Colorado judges to livestream most criminal court proceedings except under particular circumstances.

Márquez on Tuesday aimed to undo that law for the next 90 days, issuing guidance to judges that ends the presumption that court hearings must be livestreamed and instead makes such livestreams the exception rather than the rule.
