Sally Jenkins is not letting up

BTW. Does anyone have a link to the entire Transcript of the Hearing and not just the individually tweeted pages? If you do and you post it, you will be doing the board a big favor.
 
Question for the lawyers... if i bought the audio of the appeal hearing, could I transcribe that myself and post the audio + the transcript up on a site that I own?

I'm curious as to why there hasn't been a full transcript released yet.. either there are some legal ramifications for it, or people are just protecting it since they had to purchase the audio and also purchase the services of a transcriber

I'll just buy it, transcribe myself and post to my website if that is all kosher and legal.. because im getting tired of relying on individual tweets, etc so that media outlets can increase their followers and have people pay attention to them for weeks while they release a couple sentences at a time... spinning things to fit their narrative

You can contact patsfanlisa on Patriots Planet. She did the work and I believe owns the company.

Court proceedings are public. I cannot imagine that you would be in violation of any laws transcribing the proceedings. IANAL.

Since all works of the federal government are in the public domain, an audio recording provided by the court would be in the public domain, so I have to think you are free to make a transcript and distribute it.

I think (this opinion is worth what you paid for it ) that even if you bought a transcript from a transcription company you are free to distribute it (unless you agreed not to as part of the purchasse agreement) because it is very unlikely that an unadorned transcript of a public court proceeding has enough originality to be a copyrightable work. Now, if the transcript was annotated, had footnotes and citations added, etc., that could be a different story. But I don't believe transcripts generally have that.

If you ask "how could you be allowed to copy purchased transcripts? How can the stenographer make any money, then?" I believe the answer is that the stenographer has a monopoly on certified transcripts -- so if you need a transcript for some legal proceeding (or for any other thing where a certified transcript is required) you will have to buy it from the stenographer. A transcript from anywhere else -- even if it is identical -- will not suffice.
 
I'll be putting together an instructional video for the guys here on "how to explain your deep and abiding love for Sally Jenkins to your wife or significant other" later on today. If I manage to survive explaining my love for Sally Jenkins to my wife that is.

We all like her for these reasons and I'm sure Tom does too but we won't be too happy about Sally if as a result of her excellent articles that hussey breaks up Tom's marriage.
