Distribution of Transcripts

The Clerk of Courts, the Office of the Prothonotary and Orphans’ Court are provided the original transcript as a hard copy prior to the distribution of copies.

The first requestor of a transcript is obligated to pay for the original transcript which is filed with the court, plus the copy rate for their personal copy (subject to any cost sharing with additional parties).

A motion for In Forma Pauperis in relation to transcripts must be made separate and apart from a motion of the same nature for filing fees. A template affidavit and form of order can be found in the "Forms" section of this website. Please select the appropriate form for your specific court, either Criminal, Civil, Family, or Orphans' court. Please contact the Office of the Chief Court Reporter or Office of the Family Master for further information.
