In trial court the issue for me was about being able to hear and getting a good record. If I asked counsel to sit it was because their voice didn’t carry well and wasn’t being picked up by the table mics. Some folks managed to be able to stand and be heard. Some needed to be right on top of the mic.

Wear bright, lightweight clothes. Linen clothes are great.

Take breaks during the hottest time of day at places with AC: movies, stores, restaurants.

If you’re stuck inside hiding in the AC, take outside breaks early in the am, or after the sun goes down.

Check on vulnerable friends & family.

Eat cold meals.

If you have to go in the heat, acclimate as best you can before exerting yourself.

If you have decent AC, keep windows and doors closed. Make sure ceiling fans are set for summer.

A cool towel around your neck helps to cool you down.
