The Threat of Digital Recording - SAVE YOUR JOB!

Recently, several large agencies have been contacting attorneys nationwide that there is such a shortage of court reporters that a new method of reporting depositions and hearings, and they should amend their Deposition Notices to include Digital Recording. This is nothing more than one person with a recording device, who passes the audio file off to a typist. CCRA-NJ is vehemently opposed to this suggestion, and has created the two flyers available at the link below for your edification and use. This is something that no freelance reporter can sit back and hope for the best.

Beware of Digital Recording Flyer

CCRANJ Digital Recorder Response Flyer

We urge you to make copies of both, and carry them with you on jobs. Distribute it to attorneys you work with, get a conversation going. Everything you need to know to speak intelligently about the subject is contained in the flyers. If attorneys know that they may be getting Digital Recorder transcripts in the discovery process and we equate that to the well-known discontent with electronically-recorded court transcripts, it will be a huge advantage in fighting the introduction of DR in the freelance field.

We also urge agency owners to put these flyers in EVERY transcript going out of the office to both clients and non-clients. Together, we can save our position in the freelance field and protect the record from inferior transcripts.
