302 - Stenographers must furnish copies of proceedings.

§  302.  Stenographers  must  furnish  copies of proceedings. 1. Every  stenographer in a court of record must, upon request, furnish, with  all  reasonable  diligence,  to the defendant in a criminal case, or a party,  or his attorney in a civil cause, a copy, written out at length from his  stenographic notes, of the testimony and proceedings, or a part thereof,  upon the trial or hearing, upon payment, by  the  person  requiring  the  same, of the fees allowed by law.    2.  Except  as  provided  in subdivision three of this section, in any  civil or criminal case, if the district attorney, the  attorney  general  or  the  judge  presiding  at the trial, or any appellate court or judge  thereof, requires such a copy, the stenographer is entitled to his  fees  therefor;  but  he  must furnish it, upon receiving a certificate of the  sum to which he is entitled. The amount thereof  must  be  paid  by  the  treasurer  of the county or city, as the case may be, where the trial or  hearing is held, upon the certificate of the district attorney, attorney  general, the judge presiding at the trial or hearing, or  the  appellate  court  or  judge  thereof,  from  the court fund, or the fund from which  jurors are paid, or from any other available fund.    3. In any civil case when  a  transcript  may  be  necessary,  if  the  attorney  general  requires  such a copy, the cost of such copy shall be  paid out of funds  appropriated  to  the  department  of  law  for  that  purpose.
