§ 302. Stenographers must furnish copies of proceedings. 1. Every\nstenographer in a court of record must, upon request, furnish, with all\nreasonable diligence, to the defendant in a criminal case, or a party,\nor his attorney in a civil cause, a copy, written out at length from his\nstenographic notes, of the testimony and proceedings, or a part thereof,\nupon the trial or hearing, upon payment, by the person requiring the\nsame, of the fees allowed by law.\n 2. Except as provided in subdivision three of this section, in any\ncivil or criminal case, if the district attorney, the attorney general\nor the judge presiding at the trial, or any appellate court or judge\nthereof, requires such a copy, the stenographer is entitled to his fees\ntherefor; but he must furnish it, upon receiving a certificate of the\nsum to which he is entitled. The amount thereof must be paid by the\ntreasurer of the county or city, as the case may be, where the trial or\nhearing is held, upon the certificate of the district attorney, attorney\ngeneral, the judge presiding at the trial or hearing, or the appellate\ncourt or judge thereof, from the court fund, or the fund from which\njurors are paid, or from any other available fund.\n 3. In any civil case when a transcript may be necessary, if the\nattorney general requires such a copy, the cost of such copy shall be\npaid out of funds appropriated to the department of law for that\npurpose.\n
