Community custody violation hearings are open to the public to attend virtually given the facility has the resources to accommodate virtual or telephonic hearings. The presiding officer may preclude public attendance for a specifically stated reason, close the hearing in whole or in part, or limits the number of persons that may be present. For in-custody hearings where the facility does not allow for virtual public attendance, the public may attend dependent on facility rules.
