Summary

The Civil Discovery Act provides a comprehensive procedure for the noticing, conduct, and transcription or recording of oral depositions. Existing law requires the party noticing the deposition to bear the cost of the transcription, unless the court, on motion and for good cause, orders that the cost be borne or shared by another party. The requesting attorney or a party representing himself or herself is required to timely pay the deposition officer or entity providing the services of the deposition officer for the transcription, and any other deposition products or services that are requested. This bill would require the requesting attorney or a party representing himself or herself, upon the written request of a deposition officer who has obtained a final judgment for payment of services provided pursuant to the provisions described above, to provide to the deposition officer an address that can be used to effectuate service of summons by personal delivery, as specified.
