Why can't I view transcripts using my PACER account?
The Judicial Conference has determined that transcripts may only be viewed in PACER by parties that have purchased the transcript from the transcriber, for the first ninety days after filing. Other interested parties may view the transcripts at the Office of the Clerk without charge. See the Courts Transcript Policy and Procedure.
Why is a transcript available to anyone who wants to view it at the Office of the Clerk, even in the first seven days after the transcript is filed? I thought parties had 7 days to examine a transcript and file a Statement of Intent to Redact.
The Judicial Conference has determined that transcripts must be available in the Office of the Clerk from their original filing. After a transcript has been redacted, the Clerk will seal the original, unredacted transcript. As with any other document, a party can always ask the Court to seal a transcript. See the Courts Transcript Policy and Procedure.
