Perfect, Lisa ~ I've often said 1-800 firms, but have cringed when saying it and have wanted to add clarification because I have a few smaller, honest, cr-owned and run firms that I take work for that have an 1-800 number (and a couple larger ones too) and they are not LIARs :)

Hi, Rachel. The "DC standard page" is 22 lines. (Heads up: In Baltimore, you'll find a lot of transcripts put out on 21 printed lines.) I work for so few DC firms, and haven't for so many years, I'm not quite sure what the practice is lately. But at one time, I was familiar with a firm that produced transcripts in both 22 and 25-line format. The page rates were considerably lower than other firms, and it was the same whether the transcript was 22 or 25 lines. When reporters asked about that,…

When reporters asked about that, the answer was a peppy, gee, just consider it a bonus when it's a 22-line job.<br />

Is this a common practice in DC? I have had dealings with one agency out of DC that I KNOW changes the lines per page. I'm in Chicago where the lines per page is 24. They required 25 and changed it back to 22. I won't do work for that agency anymore. And there's another agency in DC that I suspect but have no confirmation that they're doing the same thing, changing transcripts from 25 to 22. So I'm wondering if this happens in that part of the country frequently.<br />

Another underhanded tactic utilized by LIAR is adding pages to the transcript delivered by the court reporter, whether by reformatting transcripts or by charging full page rates for the inclusion of a word index. LIARS who engage in these practices can also be referred to as CHEATS<br />

Thanks, Bill. Some of the private responses that others sent were HILARIOUS, but probably too foul for public display! Of course, foul language doesn't offend me in the slightest, but what's being done to our industry DOES offend me.
