Does anyone have an application they have used on their smartphone where you can take a picture of a document and it converts the file into a pdf?

JOUT/JOUT into JOUZ

DOUT/DOUT into DOUZ

Comment by Clerk Reporting Services on May 31, 2013 at 8:06

turn JIN/JIN into JINZ

DIN/DIN to DINZ

why make more work for yourself

Comment by Clerk Reporting Services on May 31, 2013 at 8:04

I changed my ID's using my number bar...

I now use 1U - SPEAKER ONE; 2U - SPEAKER TWO, etc.

6U (use right hand only)  Then use:

1UZ = SPEAKER ONE:  Q.

1UBKZ = SPEAKER ONE:  Okay.

Q.  

all in one stroke and now I never misstroke my ID's using just the

number bar.  I used to do 1/1 for SPEAKER ONE, etc. but it never came out and was too hard to hit flying but now the U balances the stroke and it's solid.

Thanks, Clerk!  Stealing them.  :)

My goal is ONE STROKE briefs for everything possible!! 

Less stroking is time saving and better on your small overused muscles and tendons :)

Comment by Clerk Reporting Services on May 31, 2013 at 7:58

I use SKUZ for (Discussion off the record.)

REZ (Brief recess.)

R*EZ (Brief recess was taken from ** to **) where time is needed

LUFPZ (Whereupon, a lunch recess was taken at ** o'clock p.m.)

AFRNZ -- this brief puts in your afternoon session blurb

SWOERNZ - brings in your sworn blurb

TERZ - brings in your interpreter sworn blurb

WIRD (Witness examines document)

WIRDZ (Witness examines documents)

all of these I use directly from my steno machine...voila...

Those are good, Janet.  I'm getting ready in case I help them out another time.

Comment by Janet on May 31, 2013 at 7:51

You could do something like JIN/JIN (jury in) and JOUT/JOUT (jury out).   DIN/DIN (defendant in) and DOUT/DOUT (defendant out).

Those are easy to define with your parentheticals.

 

 

 

Comment by Janiece on May 31, 2013 at 7:37

I mainly take depositions but I just typed up my first trial.  Official transcripts have a lot of parentheticals that I don't have.  I would like to get some ideas for outlines you use for your parentheticals.  For example, when I want (Off-the-record discussion.) to come up I write AUFF/AUFF.  What are some ideas for (The defendant was present.)  (The defendant was not present.)  (The witness stepped down.)  (The jury left the courtroom.)  (The jury returned to the courtroom.)

That's all I can think of right now.

Thanks,

Janiece
