LOCAL COURT REPORTER RECOGNIZED FOR PARTICIPATION IN NATIONAL COURT REPORTING AND CAPTIONING WEEK
VIENNA, Va., March 28, 2013—The
National Court Reporters Association, the country’s leading organization
representing stenographic court reporters and broadcast captioners, has announced
that Linda Pugliese of San Jose, California, promoted the career opportunities
in stenographic court reporting by participating in the 2013 National Court
Reporting and Captioning Week. The awareness week, which took place February
17-23, consisted of a nationwide effort to highlight the contributions of
stenographic court reporters and captioners to society and to showcase the
career opportunities that exist in the court reporting and captioning fields.
LINDA PUGLIESE, a court reporter who owns and has operated CRS COURT
REPORTERS from SAN JOSE , CALIFORNIA , participated in the 2013 National Court
Reporting and Captioning Week by joining the grassroots efforts to promote the
profession and educate local communities about the value stenographic skills
bring to today’s marketplace.
“As highly technical career options, stenographic court reporting and
captioning require an intricate blend of skill and knowledge,” said Tami Smith,
president of NCRA and a court reporter for the 37th Circuit Court in Battle
Creek, Mich. “National Court Reporting and Captioning Week not only celebrated
and highlights the invaluable contributions that court reporters make to the
legal and deaf and hard-of-hearing communities, it also showcases the
tremendous career opportunities that are available through stenographic court
reporting and captioning. We are grateful for LINDA’s
extensive involvement in this initiative and for her never-ending support of
this rewarding profession.”

S.F. Eliminating Court-Provided Reporters in Most Civil Cases
COURT REPORTING SERVICES IN CIVIL CASES
Effective October 3, 2011, the services of Official Court Reporters will not normally be available during regular court hours in the civil departments of San Francisco Superior Court located at the Civic Center Courthouse.
When the services of an Official Court Reporter are not available for a hearing or trial in a civil case, a party may arrange for the presence of a certified shorthand reporter to serve as an official pro tempore reporter. It will be that party’s responsibility to pay the reporter’s fee for attendance at the proceedings, but the expense may be recoverable as part of the costs, as provided by law. [Rule 2.956(c), Cal. Rules of Court]
Call CRS for the most important part of your case, the trial. You will be sure that our reporters are the best in the business and experienced in handling all aspects of court work.

Fear the Middleman
Why pay more to a "national" court reporting firm for your local depositions?
Truth is, "national" court reporting firms DO NOT have court reporters on staff in every locale across the United States or the world. Instead, they subcontract with local reporters. You can hire that same local reporter directly and save money in most cases. How do you save money by hiring locally? Marketing on a national scale is expensive. Local reporters don't have that expense. Higher operating costs and an additional layer of profit result in higher prices for the consumer, YOU.
You can save money by hiring locally for your out-of-state depositions too.
Contact CRS for all your out-of-town depositions. With our court reporter, videographer and interpreter contacts and knowledge of the court reporting industry, rest assured that you're getting a quality referral. CRS offers the convenience of one call does it all, just like the "national" firms, while avoiding the pitfalls of third-party contracting and other unethical practices that not only undermine the integrity of your court records, but could render your transcript void in some jurisdictions.
