court transcripts

Official legal documentation

Court transcripts are the official written records of everything said during legal proceedings—testimony, objections, rulings, and arguments captured verbatim by a court reporter.

Lawyers use them to prepare appeals, review witness statements, or verify what was said: The defense attorney found a contradiction in the court transcripts.

They serve as the authoritative account of what occurred in the courtroom.
