Description
Recording of evidence, etc.; misdemeanor cases in circuit court. Requires the court to allow the Commonwealth and the defendant to record evidence and incidents of trial by mechanical or electronic means if no verbatim recording by a court reporter or by court-approved mechanical or electronic devices will be used. The purpose of the recording is to aid counsel in producing a statement of facts for appeal when there is no transcript and the recording will not be made a part of the record unless otherwise permitted.
