2. In areas with high epidemic incidence, it is normal to suspend the on-site lawyers' meeting and change it to video conference.
Because the actual situation is different, the video conference places of lawyers in different places are also different, which are divided into in-office video conference and out-of-office video conference. The video interview in the prison is arranged in the reception center of the public security prison, which is equipped with multiple interview kiosks (windows) to prevent outsiders from entering the prison compound. In addition to video interviews, it is arranged in the law enforcement case management center of public security organs or the police station with video terminals. Arrange on-site personnel to be responsible for management, and do a good job in interview voucher inspection and safety supervision.
After the lawyer makes an appointment to meet, the public security supervision office will assign a special person to be responsible for docking, and inform the applicant's lawyer of the confirmed video meeting method, place, time and requirements in time. Regardless of the on-campus and off-campus video conference, the public security organs will arrange special personnel to be responsible for on-site management, and do a good job in meeting voucher inspection and safety supervision. The management system is the same as the on-site meeting.
