Public Case and Hearings Information
Court Reporter Transcripts
A transcript of a court proceeding is a verbatim record of everything said in the hearing or trial by the judge, attorneys, witnesses, parties and others.
If a hearing or trial was recorded by a court reporter, the court reporter is responsible for preparing a transcript of the hearing as required by law or upon request.
Except for transcripts prepared for certain criminal matters, all other parties requesting transcripts are required to pay the reporters for preparing transcripts at the rate prescribed by law.
Judicial Administrative Records

"Judicial administrative records" show how a court manages public funds allocated to pay for its operational costs. Such records include, but are not limited to, baseline budget information, quarterly financial statements, revenue and reserve reports, copies of contracts with vendors and final audit reports.
