When a transcript is complete, the court reporter or transcriber will deliver the transcript as requested in the delivery instructions on the transcript order, along with a bill for the actual cost. Your deposit will have been deducted from the actual cost. You will be asked to pay the balance in the form of a check or money order payable to the court reporter or a transcription company. The court cannot accept cash as payment for a transcript. If your deposit was greater than the actual cost, you will receive a refund check.
