Doing Depositions in Japan

Recently, I responded to a call for an independent court reporter on CSRNation who may reside in Japan or be in Japan on a visit to engage in a deposition in Tokyo.  I sent a note to Kelli Combs clarifying the situation in Japan for depositions.  I thought I would share this with others on this site.

Japan has a set of specific laws regarding Depositions that everyone must be aware of before deciding to have one in the country.  Additionally, to the best of my knowledge, there are no…

Why doesn't my audio sync up with my notes after in-chamber conferences?

I've been a deposition reporter for 23 years, was out of reporting for almost two years, and now am an official for the first time in the courtroom.  Let me just say I have great admiration for all of you officials.  Holy Cow - the speeds, especially on L&M days.  :)   I'm also just learning CaseCatalyst.  I will be getting training in a few weeks but have a couple bells and whistles I'm concerned about till then.…

Electronic Signature

Hi everyone.

I am on Digicat software which does not support electronic signature.  Does anyone know how I can apply an electronic signature to my certificate page using a free software?  I hear Adobe Acrobat will do the trick, but at a cost of $395.

Thanks,  Maura

Writer mic or laptop mic?

I am a CR student and am looking at pro writers and laptops.  I have a good desktop that I will use at home so only need a laptop that is "good enough" for jobs.  Any suggestion on laptop brands?  Also, which is preferred, a laptop mic or a writer mic?  I'm thinking used writers, possibly a Steno Fusion, and will definitely use CaseCat.  

  Gracias!

Best way to get to work?!

Hello all,

I've posted once before and received very positive feedback. I am a new reporter, I've done about 7 jobs, but I would like to start working more. As of right now I'm working with one firm. I was wondering if you all could give me some advice on how to go about getting on calendar with other firms? I've made a few calls, but it seems to not get me anywhere. All feedback is much appreciated.

Suffix help please

Hi, all.
I have endings defined as:
{Suffix}ing
{Suffix}s
{Suffix}ed

Yet when I write them, occasionally I get them not attaching to the root word, particularly if I pause on that second stroke. Is there anything I can do to get them to attach to the root word even with the pause?

Thanks for your help in advance.
