Founded, supported, and guided by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the J. Reuben Clark Law School (BYU Law) is an integral part of Brigham Young University and embraces the university’s global mission and aims. BYU Law recognizes the inherent dignity and equality of each individual and welcomes people from the full range of human experience. We are committed to the teachings of Jes

us Christ and honor His many roles, including healer, mediator, counselor, peacemaker, advocate, lawgiver, and judge. In striving to emulate His example, we seek to be and develop people of integrity who combine faith and intellect in lifelong service to God and neighbor. As a community, we aim to advance justice, mercy, liberty, opportunity, peace, and the rule of law. To these ends, BYU Law prioritizes inspiring teaching, rigorous study, and influential scholarship in an environment that values diversity, fosters unity, motivates excellence, nurtures leadership, promotes innovation, engenders empathy, and cultivates compassion.

BYU Law Professors Lucy Williams and Dane Thorley, alongside NYU's Professor Aaron Kaufman, recently published new research on the impact of courtroom cameras. Using AI to analyze Ninth Circuit proceedings, their study offers preliminary empirical evidence that video recording may subtly alter judicial behavior and conversational dynamics.

A new BYU-NYU study uses AI to study what happens when federal appellate courts go on video — and finds that courtroom behavior does change.
