JERS

The U.S. District Court Northern District of Ohio offers the Jury Evidence Recording System (JERS), developed by the Western District of North Carolina, to capture evidence electronically during a trial and to make that evidence accessible in the jury deliberation room. For questions regarding the use of JERS, attorneys should contact their respective Judicial Officer for clarification.
