The prosecution and the defence team in the Oscar Pistorius murder trial left the court room through the judge's entrance, apparently to hold a meeting prior to proceedings in the High Court in Pretoria on Monday morning.
The court room was filling up ahead of Pistorius's appearance.
He is accused of shooting dead his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, at his Pretoria home on February 14, 2013. He has claimed he had mistaken her for an intruder.
Pistorius siblings Aimee and Carl sat in the same row as the Steenkamp family.
The Pistorius and Steenkamp families left a large gap between themselves on the bench.
Steenkamp's mother, June, and those who accompanied her were dressed in black. She sat quietly in the gallery, waiting for the proceedings to begin.
