On October 1, 2025, the Albany Division of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of New York will discontinue using Teams Audio and begin using Teams Video for appearances for motions and confirmation hearings.  Note that a notice of hearing for a matter scheduled in the Albany Division on or after October 1, 2025, must contain the Teams Video Conferencing meeting registration information in place of the Teams dial-in information.  The specific language to be included in a notice of hearing and instructions for registering for a video appearance are located under Judge Radel's page under both the Appearances and Hearing Dates tabs. 

Instructions for Registering for a Video Appearance via Teams along with a training video can also be found under the same Appearances and Hearing Dates tabs under Judge Radel's page.
