The Illinois Order on Request for Extended Media Coverage-Spanish is a document issued by the Illinois Office of the Attorney General (FLAG) that allows Spanish-language media outlets in the state of Illinois to request extended media coverage of certain court proceedings. This order is intended to ensure that all Illinois citizens have access to the same news and information regarding court proceedings, regardless of language. There are two types of Illinois Order on Request for Extended Media Coverage-Spanish: one for criminal matters and one for civil matters. The criminal version of the order applies to all criminal proceedings in the state of Illinois, while the civil version applies to civil proceedings. Both versions require that the requesting media outlet provide proof of the need for extended coverage and that the request is made in writing. The media outlet must also provide a sworn statement of the coverage the outlet intends to provide and the qualifications of any personnel assigned to the coverage.
