COMMENTS
Judge Falcon is known as a progressive judge and an advocate of implementing various modes of technology in the courtroom. He is pushing to have his courtroom be part of the experimental video-conferencing system where defendants <i>stand before the judge</i> by simply sitting in front of a computer at a police station. It is an attempt to save time for everyone involved.
ABOUT THE AREA
District Court 10-02-01 covers the boroughs of Hunker, New Stanton, South Greensburg, Youngwood, and shares Hempfield Township with several other Courts. The heart of this district, Youngwood, is a small but crowded residential area. Police are often on the lookout for un-inspected cars in hopes of cracking down on the local drug problem. It is also a hot spot for random DUI checkpoints, especially in the short span between Youngwood and New Stanton.
