  Order Nos. 2001-4, 2003-4,

       On order of the Court, Administrative Order Nos. 2001-4, 2003-4, 2004-3, and
  2006-7 are rescinded, effective May 1, 2007.
  
       Staff Comment:  Administrative Order Nos. 2001-4, 2003-4, 2004-3, and 2006-7
  implemented and then continued and expanded a pilot program in various courts allowing
  for the use of interactive video technology (IVT) in certain juvenile and probate
  proceedings.  With the adoption of MCR 3.904 and MCR 5.738a, courts will be able to
  institute IVT without prior approval by the State Court Administrative Office, as long as
  the IVT system installed by the courts meets IVT standards established by SCAO.  Thus,
  those administrative orders will be obsolete.
