Beginning this month, litigants in family law and probate proceedings will be forced to hire their own court reporters — at a cost of $800 to $2,000 a day.
Responding to a critical shortage of court reporters, the Los Angeles Superior Court system has decided to restrict the proceedings where they will be automatically provided beginning this month.
Capturing and preserving the official written record of court proceedings is critical to the administration of justice, the California Trial Court Consortium said in a January report analyzing the court reporter shortage. Transcripts are used by attorneys in cross-examinations and often reread to jurors during deliberations. Without one, an appeal might not be possible, the consortium concluded.
Graduates of Cypress’ court reporting program can expect to earn more than $100,000 a year, said Henry Hua, dean of the college’s Business and Computer Information Systems Division.
