A Michigan man with a suspended driver's license joined a digital court hearing about his case from behind the wheel of a vehicle he was driving.
Corey Harris did not physically appear in court for his hearing on May 15. Instead, he dialed into the Zoom call — while he was driving, according to video of the hearing posted on Washtenaw County Judge Cedric Simpson’s YouTube page.
Simpson asked Harris whether he was driving when he joined the hearing. He told Simpson that he was pulling into a parking spot at his doctor's office and would be ready for the hearing in "one second."
After a brief pause and Simpson’s confirming Harris was "stationary," the attorney representing Harris, Natalie Pate, who was in court that day, asked for an adjournment of two to four weeks.
