  • The "Curious Case" of an Unspoken Opening Speech Act: A Video-Ethnography of the Use of Video Communication in Courtroom Activities
    Research on Language & Social Interaction, 2010
    Co-Authors: Christian Licoppe, Laurence Dumoulin
    Abstract:

    This article reports the results of an ethnographic study of Court Hearings in which participants are distributed across two distant sites, connected by videoconference. It focuses on the particulars of opening sequences in such mediated settings, and discusses in detail a ocurious case,o in which the presiding judge did not open the Hearing by the traditional, formulaic speech act (oThe Hearing is now open. You may be seated.o). Through a combination of ethnographic observation and sequential analysis, we show how the production of such an expected institutional speech act in Courtroom Hearings may have been made irrelevant at the sequential slot in which one might have expected its performance. What such a speech act does in a given activity-embedded sequential setting depends on and reveals the particular interplay of technology, talk- and gesture-in-interaction, and activity that is relevant to the ongoing production of a proper beginning for a Court Hearing conducted at a distance.

  • The "curious case" of an unspoken speech act: a video-ethnography of the use of video-communication in Courtroom activities

  • The Microformation of Criminal Defense: On the Lawyer's Notes, Speech Production, and a Field of Presence
    Research on Language and Social Interaction, 2006
    Co-Authors: Thomas Scheffer
    Abstract:

    In the following discourse analysis, I crisscross the realms of text and talk to follow the microformation of legal discourse. How, I ask, does a barrister put together the case for a Crown Court Hearing? This representational project, I argue, involves assorted artefacts (marks, modules, maps, or lists) that are consulted as resources on succeeding stages. The various sites of the microformation are the brief, the barrister's note book, and some confidential and staged speech events. The offered trans-sequential analysis of legal discourse puts into perspective preparation and performance, file work and speech production, procedural history, and the field of presence. I explore, above all, the unknown region in between judicial talk and textuality. In this way, in the article, I account for the complexity, contingency, and craft of criminal defense.

  • Materialities of Legal Proceedings
    International Journal for the Semiotics of Law, 2004
    Co-Authors: Thomas Scheffer
    Abstract:

    The author explores materialities as pre-established and co-producing features of criminal proceedings. This is done by discussing Courtrooms, files and stories in relation to English Crown Court Hearings. The three materialities gain significance in the course of the Court Hearing, but do not derive from it. They exceed the course of talk-in-Court. Once the Hearing started, the pre-established materialities can be referred to but not simply modified. Materialities, in this line, provide stability and guidance for the Hearing. They facilitate, purify and condense it. However, their temporal separation causes problems for those who run the show. Materialities can be employed but not fully integrated. Unwelcome parts do, at times, disturb, disrupt and complicate the current dealings.
