How many days after the application and fee payment must an official court reporter furnish a transcript?

30 days
90 days
120 days
180 days

The correct answer is: 120 days

The correct choice indicates that an official court reporter must furnish a transcript within 120 days after the application and fee payment. This timeframe is in place to ensure efficiency in the legal process, providing timely access to court records that may be necessary for appeals and other legal proceedings. Court reporters are vital in producing accurate and thorough transcripts, and the 120-day requirement reflects a balance between the need for promptness and the time required to transcribe potentially extensive and complex court proceedings. This standard helps maintain the integrity of the legal system by ensuring that transcripts are available in a reasonable time while allowing court reporters sufficient time to prepare high-quality work.
