Are court reporters required to report closing arguments?

  1. Yes, in all cases

  2. They may be required depending on court and jurisdiction

  3. Only if the judge explicitly requests it

  4. No, they are never required to report them

The correct answer is: They may be required depending on court and jurisdiction

Court reporters may be required to report closing arguments depending on the specific court and jurisdiction. Different courts have varying rules and procedures regarding which parts of a trial must be transcribed. In some jurisdictions, the reporting of closing arguments is mandatory, while in others, it may not be required unless specifically requested by a party or the judge. This flexibility allows courts to align their reporting needs with the particularities of each case, adhering to local rules and practices. This understanding is crucial for court reporters as they navigate their responsibilities and fulfill legal obligations in different settings.
