BILL NUMBER:A3514 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the civil practice law and rules, in relation to the cost of transcripts SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: The civil practice law and rules is amended by adding a new section 8301-a. This section states that the court clerk, within two days after the conclusion of a trial for the crime of murder or homicide as defined in the penal law shall so notify the court stenographer, who, within 90 days of such notification shall make a transcript of the stenographic minutes of said trial or hearing, and shall deliver said transcript to the victim's survivors or their attorney, and file with the court clerk an affidavit of the fact and date of such delivery and filing. The expense of such transcript shall be a county charge or, in the counties within the city of New York, a city charge, as the case may be, payable to the stenographer out of the court fund upon the certificate of the judge presiding at the trial or hearing. JUSTIFICATION: At the conclusion of a criminal trial, the criminal is entitled to a free copy of the Court transcripts. Unfortunately and unjustly, the victim or his or her survivors must pay for each page of the same transcripts. The number of pages can often run into the hundreds. The Court Stenographers office charges between $2-$3 per page for an official transcript if the minutes are already done. Otherwise the fee runs $4-$5 a page. Most families cannot afford to
