| | California Division of Workers' Compensation Provides Update on Virtual Courtroom Transition and Installation of Public Wi-Fi
By Lonce Lamonte, adjustercom editor using DWC Newsline's News Release Dated February 27, 2025 - February 27, 2025The Division of Workers’ Compensation (DWC) continues to work toward its transition to the CourtCall Video Platform, starting on March 3, 2025. All mandatory settlement conferences, status conferences, lien conferences and priority conferences will be moved to the platform. DWC has launched a webpage that provides a list of links for all judges’ virtual courtrooms, as well as a training video and written guides on using the platform. The courtroom links may also be found on DWC’s home page.
Although links to the virtual courtrooms are provided in the DWC hearing notices, these virtual courtrooms will not be activated until March 3, 2025. Please do not attempt to access them prior to that time. If you have a hearing notice that does not have a link for a virtual courtroom and the hearing is set for March 3, 2025 or later, please go to the DWC website prior to the hearing and use the link assigned to the DWC workers’ compensation judge to access the virtual courtroom. Participants may also use the judge’s call-in number provided on the website associated with the virtual courtroom. DWC recommends that parties use the link to the virtual courtroom for better access to the platform.
To assist the workers’ compensation community with this transition all district offices will have public wi-fi available in DWC courtrooms.
