Filing Redacted Transcript

Rev. 02/29/2024

The system calculates the restriction and redaction deadlines based on the transcript file date.

During the 90-day restriction period, a redacted transcript is only available at the public terminals in the clerk's office. An attorney or party who purchases a redacted transcript from the court reporter or transcriber may file a request for remote electronic access with the clerk. See: Access to Transcript.

After the 90-day restriction period expires:

The public will have access to the redacted transcript via remote electronic access ("PACER") and the public terminals in the clerk's office.
The original transcript remains restricted from public access via PACER. However, unless the Court orders otherwise, viewing and printing at the public terminals will be available.
