Court reporter cartoonist passes away

NCRA member Bob Hopkins passed away at 88 on April 13th. Bob started submitting cartoons to the National Shorthand Reporter Magazine 35 years ago in 1977. Since that time more than 200 of Bob's black and white cartoon drawings had been published as well as several articles Bob had written covering subjects of interest to court reporters. Bob was not only a great cartoonist with his own wit but also has drawn many cartoons for captions submitted to him by Mrs. Mary Louise Gilman, former editor…See More

How do you explain to a lawyer accusing you of double-dipping for charging for additional copies of transcript already prepared?

A friend of mine sold transcripts of a case to all the parties involved in the case.



Then one lawyer came back and said I need another 2 copies, one of which has to be sealed for presentation to the court.



The friend set a very fair price for the additional transcripts, and the lawyer has accused my friend of double-dipping and charging twice for the transcript.



Has anyone got any good standard responses to the lawyer to explain that my friend is not… Continue

Useful information for those assessing NCRA's business acumen, if any

Conservatively NCRA has cumulatively lost over $2,000,000 during the last 16 years.



During those 16 years JCR Court Reporter Listing advertisers have cancelled their ads by the dozens because of their great dissatisfaction with with the policy of the NCRA board of directors and NCRA staff in listing the Court Reporter Listings in NO order.



NOTE: The ads are listed by seniority which is equivalent of listing the ads in NO order.



As of the May issue of JCR 94 ads… Continue

NCRA Board and staff give $3,200 yearly JCR ad discounts to two big firms

NCRA members should be aware that the NCRA board of directors and staff give a yearly JCR ad price discount of $1,600 each to McCorkle Court Reporters, Inc. and Gore Brothers.



McCorkle Court Reporters, Inc. and Gore Brothers each buy double JCR Court Reporter Listing ads so they have a 1/6 page ad in the JCR Court Reporter Listing ad section.



I have the May 2009 display advertising rates in front of me, and a 10-time 1/6 page JCR display ad sells for $360 per… Continue

Bill,
First things first, I always do a "WhoIS" search:
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=courtreporting.biz
That will give you a lot of info on the domain owner. Then a quick google search for Richard Bloxam of Pocatello brought up many, many domains that he owns, including this informative site: http://whois.domaintools.com/bender.biz
Once you scroll down, you see this:
DomainTools Exclusive
Registrant Search: "Richard Bloxham" owns about 3,022 other domains.

You quickly discover that he makes a decent living off of pay per click advertisement, using common untapped dictionary terms as domain names to drive traffic to his sites.
Hope that helps a little.
Eric
