HB 1111: Court transcripts

Concerning court transcripts.

Summary

  • Provides that certified court reporters and authorized transcriptionists (in addition to official court reporters) may make official transcripts of testimony and other court proceedings, and states that official reports transcribed from electronic recordings qualify as prima facie correct statements of testimony or proceedings.
  • Exempts transcripts requested for appellate cases from the requirement that transcripts of testimony and proceedings must be filed with the trial court.
  • Makes the Administrator for the Courts a consultant for the implementation of electronic recording equipment in courts of limited jurisdiction, instead of a required supervisor.
  • Modifies terminology regarding storage mediums for duplicated recordings of court proceedings.
