Bay Area courtsshould allow recording
I applaud Los Angeles Superior Court’s decision to allow electronic recording of certain court hearings. This addresses an unconstitutional failure in California’s justice system that has long denied many their right to appeal.
For years, a shortage of court reporters has left hearings unrecorded, effectively barring appeals for those who can’t afford private reporters.
