Appellant must order any necessary transcript within 14 days of noting the appeal by completing a separate transcript order form for each
reporter, submitting the orders to the court reporters and the district court, and attaching copies to the docketing statement filed in the court of
appeals. The completed order form must show that necessary financial arrangements have been made. In CJA cases, counsel must certify
that AUTH-24 requests have been submitted through the district court's eVoucher system for approval by the district judge. Once the
transcript has been prepared, counsel also submits the CJA-24 voucher for payment in the district eVoucher system. For assistance, see
District eVoucher Contacts for Transcript Authorization and
Payment.
In sentencing appeals, a transcript of the sentencing hearing must be ordered. In Anders appeals, plea (or trial) and sentencing transcript must
be ordered, along with any necessary hearing transcripts (e.g., suppression hearings). In multi-defendant cases involving CJA defendants,
only one original trial transcript should be purchased from the court reporter on behalf of CJA defendants, and copies should thereafter be
made at commercially competitive rates not to exceed $.15 per page.
If appellee finds other parts of the proceedings necessary, appellee must designate the additional parts within 14 days after service of the
transcript order. If appellant has not ordered the additional parts within 14 days, appellee may, within the following 14 days, order the
additional parts or move in the district court for an order requiring appellant to do so.
Counsel must review transcript and notify the district court of any intention to direct redaction of personal data identifiers within 7 days of
filing of the transcript, and thereafter submit a statement of redactions to the court reporter within 21 days of filing of the transcript, as
required by the
Judicial Conference Policy on Privacy and Public Access to Electronic Case
Files. Counsel should obtain full-size transcript
from the court reporter, since condensed transcript may not be used in the appendix. Counsel should verify that the witness name and type of
examination appear in the top margin of each page of testimony, as required for inclusion in the appendix on appeal. Local Rule 30(b).
A. This constitutes an order of the transcript of the following proceedings. Check appropriate box(es), provide date of hearing, and indicate
