    Would it therefore be illegal?

    There is a difference between laws and policies/procedural rules. The court does not have the ability to make laws. There is an important distinction to be made here I think, which is why I brought it up. If it was illegal then the court would have no ability to even consider allowing cameras per the second part of my comment.

    What’s the superior court?

    In this case it is the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.

      Thought you might know. Though my questions weren’t answered, perhaps they weren’t salient or something.

      It was my impression that the Court of Appeals only rules on matters of law and not case facts.

        True, but I don’t understand what that has to do with the camera question?
