Dear Mr. Dickerson: .

This is in response to your letter dated 8/19/13 wherein vou request "a copy of the minutes sentencing and Judgment transcripts." doo8 I was the official court reporter when the above-referenced cause went to trial in January of 1998. I have researched the records, and the. trial that commenced on January 14th, 2008, ended in a plea to~~~-~ Court on January 17, 2008. The voir dire and trial onthe merits were recorded by me, but the plea and sentencing by the Court on January 17th, 2008, was not requested to be recorded by me. Therefore, there is no Reporter's Record regarding your request.

If I cari be offurtherassistan.ce; please do not hesitate to contact me.
