Cost of Transcript:

The number of pages of the transcript ordered determines the cost of the transcript.

All original transcripts stay in the court file.

The first person to order a transcript is responsible for the cost of the original and their copy (original + 1 copy)

If an appeal has been filed, the appellant must pay for the original and ALL copies (a copy for each appelle/respondent)

The price per page is set by State Statute. The cost for a governmental agency (transcripts ordered by the court, State Public Defender, District Attorney, Law Enforcement, etc.) is $1.50 per page for the original and $.50 per page for each copy ordered.

The cost for the private bar (retained counsel) and lay persons is $2.25 per page for the original and $.50 per page for each copy ordered.

The cost for a RUSH request is $3.00 per page for the original and $.75 per page for each copy ordered.

Payment is required in advance for private party requests.  Please contact Michelle for an estimated cost of the transcript you are interested in obtaining.

*Rush – transcript done within 7 days (if no other shorter statutory time limit applies)

**Ordinary course of workload – will be done in the order received and after any requests which may have statutory time limit restrictions which would require me to do a transcript out of order.
