Transcript
00:00When representing yourself in court, you want to cover all bases, like a lonely baseball player.
00:07Not only for what's in front of you, but for the potential future of the case.
00:11This includes a possible appeal where you may be able to ask other judges to look at what happened in your case,
00:16to see if your judge made any mistakes in applying the law.
00:20If you can show that your judge committed an error, you may get a chance to start over, or sometimes win your case outright.
00:28But how do you show the appellate judge these crucial mistakes?
00:32Often they come in what the judge said in court during decisions, or even in something you or other people said to the judge.
00:38Without something to show the appellate judges what happened or what was said in the courtroom,
00:43they will just assume your judge did everything right.
00:46That's where the court reporter comes in.
00:48The court reporter will type everything said by anyone in the courtroom into his or her stenograph machine.
00:54But usually courtrooms don't automatically come with court reporters, just like popcorn doesn't come free with your movie.
01:00You have to order and pay for one to be there.
01:03But that's a small price to pay for the chance to win your case later.
01:07If you do appeal your case later, there will be another charge for the court reporter to type out what everyone said on paper.
01:13This is called the official transcript.
01:16So how do you order a court reporter exactly?
01:19Well, if you are part of the LegalYou community, it's as simple as a phone call or an email to LegalYou.
01:25LegalYou can arrange a court reporter at a fair price.
01:29And if you ever need to appeal, LegalYou will help you get your official transcript and get it filed with the court.
01:35You can do this, and LegalYou can help.
