How to get copy of hearing transcript

[TJRodolph]

Hello Soc,

I want to read the transcript from my custody hearing in March. I do have the court order the Referee sent out shortly after the hearing.

Questions:

1) What is the proper form to use to request a copy of the transcript from my hearing?

2) Is there usually a fee for requesting a copy?

Call the court reporters office at the courthouse and ask how much a transcript will cost.

Yes and it's usually pretty spendy. Expect about $1.50 -2.50 per page -- double spaced.
