Defense complains that the State is using PowerPoint.

I really want to know what their complaint about PowerPoint is but I don’t have the attention span for videos.

Nougat OP ,

Apparently, when a party "creates a document," which a PPT is, the other side gets a copy of it.

Defense is complaining that the State is presenting these "documents" during the hearing, instead of presenting them as motions. That Defense "doesn't have time to review this document."

Even though the State is just reading the document into the record, just like they are all doing with all of their oral arguments before the court.

Defense's complaint about the use of PowerPoint could easily be solved by ... not putting the PowerPoint presentation in front of the court, but just presenting it all orally, and just using the PPT as notes.

Honestly, there's nothing in any of the PPTs the State has presented that need to be presented in that format. It could all just as easily be done orally.
