What is a deposition transcript and how is it created?
How may it be used during trial?
Every utterance made during a deposition is recorded. A court reporter usually records the deposition proceedings and creates an official deposition transcript. Methods of recording a deposition include stenographic recording (a traditional method that involves the use of a shorthand machine), audio recording, video recording, or some combination of these methods. Rule 30(b)(2) of the FRCP states that unless the court orders otherwise, a deposition "may be recorded by sound,
sound-and-visual, or stenographic means."
The deposition transcript may be used by either party during the trial to prove a particular point or to impeach (call into question) the credibility of a witness who says something during the trial that is different from what he or she stated during the deposition.
