Does the appellee also need to designate the transcript?
Only if the appellant’s selected parts of the transcript will not be enough to decide the issues on appeal. The appellee may designate additional parts of the electronic record to be transcribed by filing: • Designation of Transcript, SHS-AP 140 Who pays for the transcript? It is the appellant’s responsibility to prepare and pay for the transcript. This includes both the transcript the appellant designated AND the transcript the appellee designated. This means the appellant hires the transcriber and pays for ALL transcripts. Transcripts can be very expensive. If you cannot afford to pay for the transcript, you may ask the Supreme Court to let you file the cassette or CD from the Superior Court instead of the transcript by filing: • Motion & Affidavit to Accept CD or Audio Cassette Tape, SHS-AP 150 • proposed Order Accepting CD / Audio Cassette Tape, SHS-AP 160 OR • file a motion to allow the transcript to be prepared at public expense which means you will not have to pay for it.
