Summary

Existing law authorizes a court, party, or person who has purchased a transcript to reproduce a copy or portion thereof as an exhibit, pursuant to court order or rule, or for internal use, without paying a further fee to the reporter, but prohibits otherwise providing or selling a copy or copies to any other party or person. This bill would additionally prohibit distributing, publishing, or emailing a copy or copies of the transcript to any other party or person. The bill also would prohibit a court, party, or person that does not purchase a transcript, but, pursuant to a specified rule of court, requests another party to lend it that party's copy of the transcript or is temporarily in possession of the transcript, from distributing, publishing, emailing, selling, or reproducing a copy or portion thereof without paying a fee to the reporter. The bill would provide that a transcript loaned pursuant to that rule of court may be used only to submit an appellate brief, as specified.
