Thanks from New Jersey, Lisa, for capturing the essence of the professionalism and dedication required in this demanding profession. When I am in a major trial realtiming and providing daily copy, back into court with one or two hours sleep, giving more than seems humanly possible, I tell myself that nothing and no one can do what we do. Our team has also captioned court for a judge with profound hearing loss for the last six years, enabling this great judge to remain on the bench. Good luck!

Thank you, Lisa. Florida is behind you as well.

@danielcooper1000 look at this. you ask a court reporter to answer a question and she did and they REMOVED her answer. they will probably whip her. they are not allowed to tell us the anything!

you have never heard of a judge being turned in for illegal actions and how is that when there are millions of complaints. this youtube post is rare as they rarely allow any news involving courtreporters. i found one court reporter forum and asked a question in reply to a post. they took the forum down.

@danielcooper1000 thats no "mistake." it might seem so, as they are always learning better ways to cheat (judges and lawyers). i will bet my first born the mistake was against you. you will never see a mistake against the opposing lawyer.

they have a very extreme and complex rigged system (which includes court reporters), so it might seem llike it would be trivial to cheat against you, but you must realize they have a larger agenda and it is mostly about job security and salaries.

@denbenenki you are a douche bag. Court reporters are impartial officers of the court, and as such don't give whit who wins or loses. Your assertion that transcripts are tampered with, and in "all cases if self-represented" is a testament to your reading level. Why would they waste their time, and what could they possibly gain by doing so? So you're self-represented? As the saying goes, then you have a fool for a client. Get a life.

[denbenenki]

Court Reporter's are using audio recording (Backup Audio Media) built into computer-aided translation software.

There is little said about this as the c/r’s act like they are possibly losing their jobs—they aren't. The real reason is transcripts are considered infallible—the c/r sacred—they aren't. Our judiciary is one continuous racketeering Govt. agency, worse than all others as there is no one to get help from. Transcripts are tampered with in most cases—all cases if self-represented.

[denbenenki]

Their nat’l org advises C/Rs not to tell the litigants about the recording, which actually means don't tell the self-represented ones, as the attys already know.

The Courts have already ruled the C/Rs do not have to let a party have a copy of the audio; claiming it is their own property. But imagine any scenario where it would be wrong to let a party have a copy.

C/Rs witness ppl getting robbed every week and say nothing.

It's a good thing this professional and intelligent lady communicated with Governor Schwarzenegger through video. If he met her in person, he would have likely groped her. Thank God he's gone.

@danielcooper1000 I think you're a troll. Yeah, you can't afford transcripts, so let's get rid of court reporters. And I'm sure you can't afford lawyers either. So let's get of rid of laywers too. Sounds good to me. Why is it that we can't make a living because we are charging for our skill but you aren't troubled by other well-paid professionals?

Like I said, you're a troll.

@kp71212 and every other word he spelled incorrectly.

[danielcooper1000]

@kp71212 Also do you beleive that everyone deserves a fair and just trial even if you can't afford a lawyer or the fees to pay for transcripts. Also since you are a court repoter and you spend a alot of time in court rooms Please tell me how you feel about SBX211 and the Retro Active Imunity from prosecution granted to judges under SBX211. PLEASE REPLY I really would appreciate your opinion. And once again I'm sorry for being harsh about your job but I need those transcripts and I'm broke.
