DIAS, JANA SOETE. AND JILLIAN PARRISH This action is brought in the name of the State on the relation of Scripps Media, Inc. d/b/a WCPO-TV which seeks a writ of prohibition and writ of mandamus. WCPO for its Petition and Complaint for a Writ of Prohibition and Writ of Mandamus states the following: PARTIES AND JURISDICTION 1. Petitioner Scripps Media, Inc. d/b/a WCPO-TV is a Delaware corporation properly registered with the Ohio Secretary of State to do business in the state of Ohio. 2. Respondent Tracie M. Hunter is a judge of the Court of Common Pleas for Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Division, who presides over several cases involving the alleged felonious assault and aggravated rioting charges against six defendants in connection with the beating of a North College Hill man. 3. The cases are docketed as follows: In re: TM, Case Nos. 12-7285, 12-7305; In re.' T.M., Case Nos. 12-7288, 12-7306; In re.' M.J., Case Nos. 12-7279, 12-7308; In re.' A.H., 1 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 Case Nos. 12-7366, 12-7367; In re.' L. C., Case Nos. 12-7278, 12-7307; In re: D. C., Case Nos. 12-7304, 12-7303 (collectively referred to herein as the "Juvenile Court Cases"). 4. This Court possesses jurisdiction over the subject matter of this action and over Respondent pursuant to Article IV, 203) of the Ohio Constitution, R.C. 2731.02 and State ex rel. Plain Dealer Pub! 'g Co. v. Floyd, 111 Ohio St.3d 56, 2006-Ohio-4437, 855 35, 1126 ("There is a long line of cases holding that an action for a writ of prohibition is the proper vehicle to challenge an order of a trial court which orders closure of court proceedings"). 5. On August 24, 2012, legal counsel for WCPO appeared before Magistrate Judge Kelley in the Juvenile Court Cases, along with counsel for other media and defense counsel, to respond to motions by some of the defendants' counsel to close proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. (See Affidavit of Monica L. Dias, 112.) 6. Defendants' counsel, WCPO and other members of the media (the "Parties") came to an agreement as to how proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases would be covered. In particular, the Parties agreed that WCPO and other members of the media would not broadcast, televise, photograph or record the faces or identifying features (such as tattoos) of defendants when the defendants are in the courtroom. The Parties agreed that WCPO and other members of the media could broadcast, televise, photograph, or record the faces of anyone, including defendants' parents and family members, located in the spectator, or gallery, portion of the courtroom behind the bar in the courtroom. The Parties referred to the portion of the courtroom that is not the spectator or gallery portion of the courtroom as "in front of the bar." That is, the Parties agreed that, for that portion of the courtroom "in front of the bar," WCPO and other members of the media would be allowed to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record the faces of 2 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 attorneys, courtroom personnel and the judge, but not other individuals events occurred "in front of the bar" that were unique or newsworthy. For example, if a fight broke out "in front of the bar," then WCPO and other members of the media would be allowed to broadcast, televise, photograph or record such events without being deemed in violation of the agreement. In addition, the Parties agreed that the names of the juvenile defendants are public record and had already been released to The Cincinnati Enquirer by the Cincinnati Police Department. Accordingly, no blanket prohibition on printing or using the names of the defendants or their parents was imposed on WCPO or the other members of the media. Also, the Parties agreed that there were no restrictions with regard to broadcasting, televising, photographing or recording parents, family members or persons other than the defendants in courthouse hallways. Finally, the Parties agreed that none of these restrictions would apply for other cases or if material changes occurred in the Juvenile Court Cases, such as the defendants getting bound over and tried as adults. (See Dias Affidavit, 113.) 7. On August 24, 2012, counsel for the media read the terms of the agreement discussed in Paragraph 6, above, into the record before Magistrate Judge Kelley, and counsel for defendants and the prosecution had the opportunity to speak as well. (Dias Affidavit, 1I4.) 8. On September 6, 2012, WCPO and other members of the media submitted to the Juvenile Court a Request for Transcription of the Stenographic Record of a Portion of the August 24, 2012 Hearing in Front of Magistrate David Kelley (the "Request"). (See Dias Affidavit, flI5, Exhibit 1.) The request sought access only to the portion of the Stenographic record of the portion of the August 24, 2012 hearing in front of Magistrate Kelley in which the agreement between the media and the defendants was read into the record. On February 19, 2013, Respondent denied the media's Request. (Dias Aff1davit1I6, Exhibit 2.) 3 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 9. On September 7, 2012, in accordance with Hamilton County Juvenile Court Local Rule WCPO sent by facsimile to the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court a written request to broadcast, televise, photograph or otherwise record proceedings scheduled on September 17, 2012, September 20, 2012 and September 24, 2012 in the Juvenile Court Cases. (See Affidavit of Jana Soete, 112, Exhibit A.) The written request listed the Juvenile Court Cases by case number and also requested permission "to be in court at any time any of these cases is in Juvenile court should that be outside these scheduled dates." Juvenile Court personnel informed WCPO that the written request was insufficient. (Soete Affidavit, 112.) Juvenile Court personnel forwarded to WCPO a form labeled "Application Requesting Permission to Broadcast, Televise, Photograph, or Record Courtroom Proceedings." The form application contained a certification of the applicant as follows: "We hereby certify that the conditions for recording established by the Supreme Court of Ohio and such rules as are established by this Court will be complied with and any cost arising therefrom shall be borne by the undersigned J2, Exhibit B.) Jana Soete, WCPO's managing editor, signed the certification for each of the Juvenile Court Cases with the handwritten signature 9 News." The application form stated that "all victims and witnesses may object to being filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed and if they do object, their objections shall be made known to all persons; and victims or witnesses who object may not be filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed as they so specify." (Id. at Exhibit B.) The application form contained no prohibitions or restrictions regarding filming juveniles or parents who do not object, or regarding publishing the defendants' names obtained through public records requests from the Cincinnati Police Department or otherwise, or regarding publishing the names of the defendants' parents. 112, Exhibit B.) ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 10. On September 13, 2012, Ms. Soete signed applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases on September 17, 2012, September 20, 2012 and September 24, 2012. (Soete Affidavit, 13, Exhibit C.) Ms. Soete signed the certification on the application for each of the Juvenile Court Cases with the handwritten signature or Jana Soete." The applications that Ms. Soete signed on September 13, 2012 contained the same language as the applications she signed on September 7, 2012 regarding "victims or witnesses who object may not be filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed as they so specify" and contained no blanket prohibitions or restrictions regarding filming juveniles or parents or publishing the names of defendants or their parents. 11. On September 17, 2012 and unbeknownst to WCPO, Respondent entered orders revising the agreement entered as of record on August 24, 2012 and imposing significantly more restrictions on access and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. (Dias Affidavit, 17, Exhibit 3; Soete Affidavit, 114.) Respondent's orders state as follows: "Juvenile Defendant may only be videotaped below the waist. Names of the defendants and their parents are barred from publication or broadcast for all current and future proceedings regarding this matter. Photographs of the defendants' parents are prohibited, as it may compromise the safety of the juveniles. If Defendants object at any time, a closure hearing will be conducted. Otherwise, this journalization reflects the policy for all future proceedings in the above referenced matter. "Seek permission from the prosecutor and defense counsel regarding filming them." (See Dias Affidavit, 17, Exhibit 3.) 12. Respondent's orders dated September 17, 2012 were not served on WCPO or its counsel. (Dias Affidavit, 117; Soete Affidavit, 114.) WCPO did not receive Respondent's orders ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 dated September 17, 2012 until March 29, 2013, when counsel for WCPO obtained the orders through a Public Records Request. (Dias Affidavit, 117.) The orders include a certification of the applicant stating, "We hereby certify that the conditions for recording established by the Supreme Court of Ohio and such rules as are established by this Court will be complied with and any cost arising therefrom shall be borne by the undersigned (Dias Affidavit, Exhibit 3.) The certification is purportedly signed by "Channel 9 and the signature is typewritten. WCPO did not sign the certification and did not type "Channel 9 on the signature line. (Soete Affidavit, 114.) 13. On February 19, 2013, Respondent entered orders in the Juvenile Court Cases, again imposing significantly more restrictions on access to and coverage of the Juvenile Court Cases than the Parties agreed to in the agreement entered into the record before Magistrate Judge Kelley. (See Dias Affidavit, 118, Exhibit 4.) The orders dated February 19, 2013 included a certification of the applicant identical in language to the certification on the September 17, 2012 order. (Id. at Exhibit 4). The certification is purportedly signed by Channel and the signature is typewritten. WCPO did not sign the certification and did not type TV Channel 9" on the signature line. (Soete Affidavit, Exhibit E.) 14. On March 22, 2013, WCPO was required to sign another application in order to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases, and the application contained the same restrictions on coverage of the proceedings as in the September 17, 2012 and February 19, 2013 orders. (See Affidavit of Jillian Parrish, fi[2, Exhibit A.) Jillian Parrish, WCPO's planning editor, signed the March 22, 2013 application because Juvenile Court personnel told her that WCPO would not be allowed into the courtroom, even without a camera or recording device, unless WCPO signed the application. (Parrish Affidavit, 113.) 6 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 15. On March 25, 2013, Respondent entered orders in the Juvenile Court Cases including the same overly broad and unconstitutional restrictions as in the September 17, 2012 and February 19, 2013 orders. (See Dias Affidavit at Exhibit 5.) The March 25, 2013 orders added a statement regarding the consequences of violating the order: "If media applicant violates this order, the Judge may revoke violator(s) permission to broadcast, videotape, photograph, or record all future courtroom proceedings; and additionally may take any other actions available under law." (Emphasis added.) (Dias Affidavit at Exhibit 5.) Although the certification of applicant on the March 25, 2013 orders purportedly bears the signature of ABC or in handwriting, WCPO did not sign the certification of applicant. (Soete Affidavit, Exhibit F.) 16. Respondent's orders of September 17, 2012, February 19, 2013 and March 25, 2013 (the "Orders") are unconstitutional and overly broad in several respects: a. WCPO is prohibited from broadcasting or publishing the names of defendants and their parents, even though the defendants' names, which are public record, have been disclosed to the media by police and even though The Cincinnati Enquirer has previously reported the defendants' names. In fact, the defendants' names have been widely publicized in Cincinnati and in other parts of the country, including at WWw.usatoday.com, the website of national newspaper USA Today, and at the website of the Detroit Free Press. (See Dias Affidavit, $110, Exhibit 6.) b. The Orders are so broadly written that they prohibit WCPO from reporting the names of the defendants and their parents even if WCPO learns of the names of ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 the defendants and their parents through public records, or law enforcement, or coverage of community events. c. The Orders state that "[p]hotographing the Defendant's parents is prohibited, as it may compromise the safety of the juveniles." (See Dias Affidavit, Exhibits 3, 4, 5.) Respondent imposed this restriction without hearing evidence and argument on the issue or making findings of fact and conclusions of law consistent with Well-established Ohio Supreme Court jurisprudence. See, e. State ex rel. Plain Dealer Publ'g Co. v. Floyd, 111 Ohio St.3d 56, 2006--Ohio--4437, 855 35, i] 27; State ex rel. Plain Dealer Publ 'g Co. v. Geauga County Court' of Common Pleas, Juvenile Div. (2000), 90 Ohio St.3d 79, 83-85, 734 1214; State ex rel. Dispatch Printing Co. v. Liars (1994), 68 Ohio St.3d 497, 628 1368 (paragraph one of syllabus). Moreover, Respondent's prohibition on photographing parents is overly broad because WCPO cannot be tasked with the burden of knowing who in the courtroom is a parent of the six defendants. This issue was addressed and resolved in the agreement reached by the Parties and entered of record before Magistrate Judge Kelley on August 24, 2012. d. The prohibitions and restrictions in Respondent's order of March 25, 2013 are so broad that if WCPO videotaped or photographed defendants and/or their parents at community events, rallies, or other events outside of the courtroom proceedings, or violated the unconstitutional and overly broad restrictions in some other way, WCPO would be punished by Respondent revoking WCPO's "permission to broadcast, videotape, photograph, or record all future courtroom proceedings." (Emphasis added.) (See Dias Affidavit, Exhibit 5.) Such 8 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 punishment is not limited to the Juvenile'Court Cases; rather, the March 25, 2013 order is so broad that Respondent would bar WCPO from all cases in her courtroom. Neither the Rules of Practice of Hamilton County Juvenile Court nor the Ohio Rules of Superintendence contemplates such a harsh and unconstitutional penalty.1 e. Respondent's orders of September 17, 2012 and February 19, 2013 require WCPO to "[s]eel< permission from the prosecutor and defense counsel regarding filming their likeness or image." (See Dias Affidavit, Exhibits 3, 4.) There is no support in the Rules of Practice of Hamilton County Juvenile Court or the Ohio Rules of Superintendence for such a restriction. f. The Orders state that "[j]uvenile Defendants may only be videotaped below the waist." (See Dias Affidavit, Exhibits 3, 4, 5.) WCPO typically films hands or feet of juvenile defendants in court, and often a defendant's hands will be resting on the defense table above a defendant's waist. Filming hands placed in this position would violate the Orders, and WCPO would risk being barred from "all future courtroom proceedings," per the order dated March 25, 2013. This issue was addressed and resolved in the agreement reached by the Parties and entered of record before Magistrate Judge Kelley; WCPO agreed not to film the defendants' faces or identifying features (such as tattoos). 17. WCPO is now required to sign an Application Requesting Permission to Broadcast, Televise, Photograph, or Record Courtroom Proceedings that contains the lRespondent has already barred The Cincinnati Enquirer from the courtroom in the Juvenile Court Cases for publishing the defendants' names. (See Stare ex rel. Cincinnaii Enquirer v. Hon. Judge Tracie Hunter, Case No. C--1300l83, filed March 25, 2013, First District Court ofAppeals, Hamiiton County, Ohio.) 9 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 unconstitutional and overly broad restrictions and prohibitions before WCPO is allowed to attend and cover the Juvenile Court Cases -- even if WCPO does not intend to broadcast, televise, photograph or record the proceedings. (See Soete Affidavit, 117; Parrish Affidavit, 1l3.) 18. The Orders impose restrictions and prohibitions on WCPO that constitute an unconstitutional prior restraint. See Nebraska Press Ass 'n 12. Stuart (1976), 427 U.S. 539. 19. The Orders constitute a prohibition on access to courtroom proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. A court may prohibit access to juvenile court proceedings only if the court finds after hearing evidence and argument on the issue, that there exists a reasonable and substantial basis for believing that public access could harm the child or endanger the fairness of the adjudication, (2) the potential for harm outweighs the benefits of public access, and (3) there are no reasonable alternatives to closure." Floyd, 111 Ohio St.3d at 61-62, 2006-Ohio-443 7, 1127 (citing In re T.R. (1990), 52 Ohio St.3d 6, 556 439, paragraph three of the syllabus; State ex rel. Dispatch Printing Co. v. Lias (1994), 68 Ohio St.3d 497, 628 1368, paragraph one of the syllabus). No such hearing has been held here. 20. Reasonable alternatives to the restrictions in the Orders already exist and are contained in the agreement reached by the Parties and entered of record before Magistrate Judge Kelley on August 24, 2012. See Lias, 68 Ohio St.3d at 503 restriction shielding court proceedings from public scrutiny should be narrowly tailored to serve the competing interest of protecting the welfare of the child or children and of not unduly burdening the public's right of access." Respondent has denied WCPO and its counsel access to the transcript of that portion of the August 24, 2012 hearing in which the agreement reached by the Parties was entered of record before Magistrate Judge Kelley in open court. (Dias Affidavit, 116, Exhibit 2.) l0 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 Respondent's refusal to provide WCPO with that portion of the transcript that relates to the agreement regarding WCPO's coverage of the proceedings violates WCPO's right of access; the release of the transcript will not harm the child or endanger the fairness of the proceeding. See State ex rel. Scripps Howard Broad. Co. v. Cuyahoga County of Common Pleas, 73 Ohio St.3d l9, 21-22, 652 179 (1995) ("The right of access includes both live proceedings and the transcripts which document those proceedings"). Prohibition and Mandamus are Appropriate Here 22. To obtain a writ of prohibition, WCPO must establish that (1) Respondent is about to exercise judicial or quasi-judicial power, (2) this exercise is unauthorized by law, and (3) WCPO lacks an adequate remedy in the ordinary course of law. See Smre ex rel Doe v. Copper, 132 Ohio St.3d 365, 972 553, 20l2~--Ohio-2686, W0. All three elements are met here. Respondent has exercised judicial power by signing and entering the Orders, such exercise is unauthorized by the United States Constitution and the Ohio Constitution and is contrary to Ohio law, and WCPO lacks an adequate remedy to prohibition in the ordinary course of law. 23. To obtain a writ of mandamus, WCPO must show that (1) WCPO has a "clear legal right" to relief, (2) Respondent is under a clear legal duty to perform the acts," and (3) WCPO does not otherwise have a "plain and adequate remedy in the ordinary case of law." See State ex rel Am. Legion Post 25 v. Ohio Civ. Rights Comm ll7 Ohio St.3d 441, 884 589, 2008-Ohio 1261,1111. 24. WCPO has a clear legal right to attend the proceedings without a camera or recording device and without agreeing to the unconstitutional and overly broad restrictions imposed by the Orders. But WCPO has been instructed by Juvenile Court personnel that if WCPO does not sign the unconstitutional and overly broad orders, WCPO will be denied access ll ELECTRONICALLY FILED IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 to the Juvenile Court Cases even if WCPO does not bring a camera or recording device into the courtroom. 25. WCPO has a clear legal right to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record the Juvenile Court proceedings without the unconstitutional and overly broad restrictions imposed by Respondent. The agreement reached with defense counsel and entered into of record before Magistrate Kelley on August 24, 2012 demonstrates that less restrictive and reasonable alternatives are available. 26. Respondent has a clear legal duty to permit WCPO to attend the Juvenile Court Proceedings without imposing overly broad restrictions that constitute an unconstitutional prior restraint. 27. Respondent has a clear legal duty to hear evidence and argument and make findings of fact and conclusions of law before restricting access to proceedings in the Juvenile Court cases. 28. Respondent has a clear legal duty to follow less restrictive and reasonable alternatives to her Orders' unconstitutional restrictions on WCPO's access to and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. 29. Respondent has refused to comply with her legal duty. 30. WCPO has no adequate alternative remedy in the ordinary course of law. Immediate or Expedited Action Needed 31. Upon information and belief, further proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases are scheduled for April 22, May 13, May 22, June 24 and June 27, 2013. (Soete Affidavit, 1] 8.) Therefore, the need for the requested Writ of Prohibition is immediate to prevent Respondent from imposing overly broad and unconstitutional restrictions on WCPO for access to and l2 ELECTRONICALLY FILED IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. Likewise, the need for the requested Writ of Mandamus is immediate to order Respondent to follow the least restrictive and reasonable alternatives to her Orders' unconstitutional restrictions on WCPO's access to and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. Reasonable alternatives exist, such as the terms included in the agreement between WCPO, other members of the media and counsel of record and entered into the record before Magistrate Judge Kelley on August 24, 2012. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, WCPO requests relief from this Court as follows: A. A peremptory or alternative writ of prohibition against Hon. Tracie M. Hunter, Judge of the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court, prohibiting her from requiring WCPO from signing Applications to Broadcast, Televise, Photograph, or Record Courtroom Proceedings that contain overly broad and unconstitutional restrictions contained in her orders dated September 17, 2012, February 19, 2013 and March 25, 2013 (the "Orders"); B. A peremptory or alternative writ of prohibition against Hon. Tracie M. Hunter, Judge of the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court, prohibiting her from enforcing the Orders; C. A peremptory or alternative writ of mandamus ordering Hon. Tracie M. Hunter, Judge of the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court, to follow the least restrictive and reasonable alternatives to her Orders' unconstitutional restrictions on WCPO's access to and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. Reasonable alternatives exist and include the terms in the agreement reached between WCPO, 13 ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 other members of the media, and counsel of record and entered into the record before Magistrate Judge Kelley on August 24, 2012. D. A peremptory-or alternative writ of mandamus ordering Hon. Tracie M. Hunter, Judge of the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court, to release to WCPO a copy of the portion of the stenographic record of the August 24, 2012 hearing in front of Magistrate Kelley in which the agreement between WCPO, other members of the media and the defendants in the Juvenile Court Cases was read into the record.

Dias, being duly cautioned and sworn, state as follows: 1. I am an attorney at Frost Brown Todd LLC and serve as legal counsel for Petitioner Scripps Media, Inc. d/b/a WCPO-TV I have personal knowledge of the matters recounted in this Affidavit. 2. On August 24, 2012, I appeared before Magistrate Judge Kelley in a proceeding in the cases docketed as In re.' T.M., Case Nos. 12-7285, 12-7305; In re.' T.M., Case Nos. 12- 7288, 12-7306; In re.'

I appeared along with counsel for other media outlets to respond to motions by some of the defendants' counsel to close proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 3. Defendants' counsel, WCPO, and other members of the media (the "Parties") came to an agreement as to how proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases would be covered. Although Respondent has not allowed WCPO to obtain a portion of the transcript of the court proceedings in which counsel for the media read the terms of the agreement into the record, my notes and recollections are that we agreed to the following. The Parties agreed that WCPO and other members of the media would not broadcast, televise, photograph or record the faces or identifying features (such as tattoos) of defendants when the defendants are in the courtroom. The Parties agreed that WCPO and other members of the media would be allowed to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record the faces of anyone, including defendants' parents and family members, located in the spectator, or gallery, portion of the courtroom behind the bar in the courtroom. The Parties referred to the portion of the courtroom that is not the spectator or gallery portion of the courtroom as "in front of the bar." That is, the Parties agreed that, for that portion of the courtroom "in front of the bar," WCPO and other members of the media could broadcast, televise, photograph, or record the faces of attorneys, courtroom personnel and the judge, but not other individuals _u_r_,1,l_ess_ events occurred "in front of the bar" that were unique or newsworthy. For example, if a fight broke out "in front of the bar," then WCPO and other members of the media would be allowed to broadcast, televise, photograph or record such events without being deemed in violation of the agreement. In addition, the Parties agreed that the names of the juvenile defendants are public record and have already been released to The Cincinnati Enquirer by the Cincinnati Police Department. Accordingly, no blanket prohibition on printing or using the names of the defendants or their parents was imposed on WCPO or other members of the media. Also, the Parties agreed that there were no restrictions with regard to broadcasting, televising, photographing or recording parents, family members or persons other ELECTRONICALLY FILED IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 than the defendants in courthouse hallways.

I am managing editor of Petitioner I have personal knowledge of the matters recounted in this Affidavit. 2. On September 7, 2012, I sent by facsimile to the Hamilton County, Ohio, Juvenile Court a written request to broadcast, televise, photograph or otherwise record proceedings scheduled on September 17, 2012, September 20, 2012 and September 24, 2012 in the following Hamilton County, Ohio, court cases: Case No. 12-7307, 12-7278, 12-7279, 12-7308, 12-7366, 12-7367, 12-7288, 12-7306, 12-7285, 12-7305, 12-7303, 12-7304 (the "Juvenile Court Cases"). These are the cases concerning the felonious assault and aggravated rioting charges against six defendants in connection with the beating of a man in North College Hill. A true and accurate ELECTRONICALLY FILED IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 copy of my written request and fax coversheet that was faxed to the Hamilton County Juvenile Court is attached as Exhibit A. My written request listed the Juvenile Court Cases by case number and also requested permission "to be in court at any time any of these cases is in Juvenile court should that be outside these scheduled dates." Juvenile Court personnel informed me that the written request was insufficient and forwarded to 1ne a form labeled "Application Requesting Permission to Broadcast, Televise, Photograph, or Record Courtroom Proceedings." The form application contained a certification of the applicant as follows: "We hereby certify that the conditions for recording established by the Supreme Court of Ohio and such rules as are established by this Court will be complied with and any cost arising therefrom shall be borne by the undersigned On behalf of WCPO, I signed the certification for each of the Juvenile Court Cases with the handwritten signature 9 News." The application form stated that "all victims and witnesses may object to being filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed and if they do object, their objections shall be made known to all persons; and victims or witnesses who object may not be filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed as they so specify." The application form contained no prohibitions or restrictions regarding filming juveniles or parents who do not object, or regarding publishing the defendants' names obtained through public records requests from the Cincinnati Police Department or otherwise, or regarding publishing the names of the defendants' parents, or any other restrictions regarding access to or coverage of the proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases. A true and accurate copy of the application forms that I signed on September 7, 2012 are attached as Exhibit B. 3. On September 13, 2012 and on behalf of WCPO, I signed applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases on September 17, 2012, September 20, 2012 and September 24, 2012. I signed the certification ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 on the application for each of the Juvenile Court Cases with the handwritten signature or -- Jana Soete." The applications that I signed on September 13, 2012 contained the same language as the applications I signed on September 7, 2012 regarding "victims or witnesses who object may not be filmed, videotaped, recorded, or photographed as they so specify" and contained no blanket prohibitions or restrictions regarding filming juveniles or parents or publishing the names of defendants or their parents. True and accurate copies of the application forms that I signed on September 13, 2012 are attached as Exhibit C. 4. Unbeknownst to me until very recently, Judge Tracie Hunter entered orders dated September 17, 2012 that imposed significantly more restrictions on access to and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases than were contained in the applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record courtroom proceedings that I signed and submitted to the Juvenile Court on September 7, 2012 and September 13, 2012. I was not served with Judge Hunter's orders dated September 17, 2012, and to my knowledge WCPO was not served with the September 17, 2012 orders. I have now reviewed copies of the September 17, 2012 orders. The orders include a certification stating, "We hereby certify that the conditions for recording established by the Supreme Court of Ohio and such rules as are established by this Court will be complied with and any cost arising therefrom shall be borne by the undersigned The certification is purportedly signed by "Channel 9 and the signature is typewritten. To my knowledge, WCPO did not sign the certification and did not type "Channel 9 on the signature. It is WCPO's practice to sign applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph or record Juvenile Court proceedings by hand because we do not have the capability to sign the applications with typewritten signatures. The September 17, 2012 orders state that defendants may only be videotaped below the waist, and ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 that the media are barred from publishing or broadcasting the names of defendants and their parents. The orders also state that the media are prohibited from taking photographs of the defendants' parents, and that the media must seek permission from the prosecutor and defense counsel regarding filming them. A true and accurate copy of the orders dated September 17, 2012 that I have now reviewed are attached as Exhibit D. 5. I have reviewed orders signed by Judge Tracie Hunter and dated February 19, 2013. These orders impose significantly more restrictions on access to and coverage of proceedings in the Juvenile Court Cases than were contained in the applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph, or record courtroom proceedings that I signed and submitted to the Juvenile Court on September 7, 2012 and September 13, 2012. The orders dated February 19, 2013 include a certification of the applicant that contains language identical to the certification on the September 17, 2012 orders. The certification is purportedly signed by Channel and the signature is typewritten. To my knowledge, WCPO did not sign the certification and did not type Channel 9" on the signature line. It is WCPO's practice to sign applications requesting permission to broadcast, televise, photograph or record Juvenile Court proceedings by hand because we do not have the capability to sign the applications with typewritten signatures. A true and accurate copy of the February 19, 2013 orders that I have reviewed are attached as Exhibit E. 6. I have reviewed orders signed by Judge Tracie Hunter on March 25, 2013 in the Juvenile Court Cases. The March 25, 2013 orders contain the same restrictions and prohibitions as in Judge Hunter's September 17, 2012 orders and the February 19, 2013 orders. In addition, the March 25, 2013 orders contain the following language: "If media applicant violates this order, the Judge may revoke violator(s) permission to broadcast, videotape, photograph, or ELECTRONICALLY FILED 04/19/201315233 IF C1300241 CONFIRMATION NUMBER242409 record all future courtroom proceedings; and additionally may take any other actions available under law." The orders include a certification of applicant that purportedly bears the signature handwriting. To my knowledge, WCPO did not sign the certification of applicant that appears on the March 25, 2013 orders. True and accurate copies of the March 25, 2013 orders that I have reviewed are attached as Exhibit F. 7. WCPO has been told by Juvenile Court personnel that WCPO is required to sign the Application Requesting Permission to Broadcast, Televise, Photograph, or Record Courtroom Proceedings that contains the restrictions and prohibitions in Judge Hunter's orders dated September 17, 2012, February 19, 2013 and March 25, 2013 before WCPO is allowed into the courtroom to cover the Juvenile Court Cases even if WCPO does not intend to broadcast, televise, photograph or record the proceedings. 8. Upon information and belief, I understand that there are further proceedings scheduled in the Juvenile Court cases on April 22, May 13, May 22, June 24 and June 27, 2013.
