Abstract
Live blogging from criminal trials entails journalists publishing detailed depictions of interactions and individuals from inside the courtroom - in real-time - on news websites. This digital practice thus opens up legal proceedings to a legal public beyond the courtroom walls. Whilst live blogging may enable a higher degree of insight into the legal sphere - central to Bentham's notion of open justice - meaning that legal procedures and documents are accessible and transparent as is central to our democracy - this contemporary digital practice entails currently unexplored risks which are discussed in this paper.
