In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this day of , 20 .
There shall be no charge for either this certification page or any index page if used.
Remote Depositions. An ever-increasing number of depositions are conducted remotely. NJ wants to include CLINs for these services when needed.
Stipulations for remote depositions. [Fed. R. Civ. P.] Rule 30(b)(4) allows parties to stipulate that a deposition be taken by “telephone or other remote means.” If everyone is not in the same room, put an appropriate stipulation on the record at the beginning of the deposition, indicating that the deposition is being taken remotely and indicating where each participant is located. The deposition is considered to be taking place where the deponent is located, and if the deponent is not in the same room as the court reporter, there is an issue about the court reporter’s administration of the oath to the witness. A sample stipulation may include the following language:
- We understand that notary laws may not permit the court reporter to administer an oath to the witness if they are not in the same location. [As such, counsel agree that the reporter will not administer the oath. Instead] or [In addition to the oath given by the court reporter], the witness will verbally acknowledge the following: “Do you solemnly swear or affirm under penalties of perjury that the testimony you will give in this matter will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” The parties agree that nothing about this process will impair in any way the use of this deposition as otherwise permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Prior to administering of the oath, the court reporter is required to positively verify the identity of the witness. The witness should be required to have positive identification (s)he can produce or have opposing counsel verify and stipulate to the identity of the witness.
Remote depositions can be conducted in two ways:
1. Coordinated with other U.S. Attorney’s offices where the person is being deposed, using DOJ’s VTC systems, or
2. Platform(s) offered by the Contractor.
When the Contractor hosts the remote depositions—
1. Shall provide a secure upload site to receive exhibits before the deposition and load them to the presentation application before the deposition. The process for exhibit numbering, delivering, and presenting exhibits to the witness and counsel should be discussed with the court reporter well in advance of the deposition, and it may depend upon the application(s)/tool(s) used for remote deposition. The stenographer should also take custody of the introduced exhibits for the final transcript.
2. Shall conduct a test session with all the parties a few days before the deposition. This helps ensure that all parties have the appropriate bandwidth, cameras, microphones and lighting, as well as the opportunity to ask technical questions before the deposition.
15JA0522Q00000012/0001 Page 24 of 28
3. The stenographer should be the meeting host and send links to all parties. The stenographer will also swear in the witness and control the proceeding.
4. Separate from the role of the stenographer, a videographer is required to manage the live video streaming and record the video. The videographer can also ensure that the deponent remains in full screen during the deposition, pause the recording for off-therecord discussions, and may add timestamps and/or transcript syncing to the final product.
5. Provide technical support to assist with issues during the deposition.
6. Upon request, provide synchronized video with the transcript.
Remote Notarization. Each state’s notarization laws are different and may only apply to specific proceedings. The Contractor must check with the State Notary, Secretary of State, or other regulatory agency for the state’s specific remote notarization or oath administration laws. Stenographers shall have State or National Certification as required to swear in witnesses for sworn testimony.
4. Recording Requisites
Recording hereunder shall be taken by reporters qualified in the operation of Steno-type equipment, Real Time recording, Computer Aided Transcription (CAT), Shorthand and/or monitored Multi-Microphone recording systems, and when permitted by the Presiding Official, by Steno mask. At the request of the USAO, recording shall also be taken by videotape. Regardless of the type of equipment used, it is mandatory that there be an accurate read back capability and that a back-up system be utilized. It is also mandatory that tape recording devices shall have a separate monitor head which shall allow the reporter to monitor the recorded tape.
Monitored Multi-microphone Recording Systems. The mandatory requirements follow:
* The Contractor's personnel shall operate and monitor the recording equipment at all times.
* The operating personnel shall provide to the USAO, prior to the commencement of each proceeding, a certification that the equipment is turned on and operating.
* The recording equipment utilized shall provide for the instant playback of testimony.
* The equipment shall be capable of recording as many as twenty-three grand jurors together in one room with the prosecutor and the witness.
* The system utilized shall have a back-up system to allow continuous recording of speakers. The Grand Jury hearings shall not be stopped for any reason such as the changing of a tape.
* The media shall be of such quality that there shall be no instances of inaudibility because of accents or words used by the speakers.
* The system shall be portable to allow for transportation of media to another location when an immediate decision is required by a Federal District Court Judge.
* The recording monitor shall be able to identify speakers.
* A back-up system shall be available so as not to delay the proceedings.
* The equipment utilized shall not pose any safety hazards due to exposed wires, cords, or for any other reason.
Steno mask Recording. The mandatory requirements in the event steno mask recording is permitted are as follows:
* The respective systems shall be of such quality as to ensure against error, misinterpretation, or loss of voice.
* The equipment shall contain simultaneous playback, listening, and preamplification.
Real Time Recording. The steno machine is attached to the computer. As the steno types the strikes/words are translated into English onto the screen.
Computer Aided Transcription (CAT). With this type of system, the steno strikes a key which is written onto a disk. The disk is inserted into an attachment to the computer and the information is brought up on the computer screen. Also, a back-up voice tape is made so that a re-verification can be made of the transcript.
Video Recording. The USAO will determine video formatting (DVD or other recordable media).
