HB 461 Delaware House · 151st General Assembly (2021-2022)

AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 10 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO COURT REPORTERS.

Summary
This Act modifies Superior Court’s statute pertaining to creation of the Court’s record. Previously, the statute only contemplated stenographic recording of court proceedings. Technology has advanced which permits the Court to utilize other methods, in addition to stenographers, to create the court’s record. This Act updates the statutory language related to court reports and is consistent with language used by other Delaware Courts.
