Watching a live stream with a couple lawyers discussing what is going on. One asked about the Court Reporter. Wondering how they get the transcripts done and such. One lawyer said “No, she doesn’t work for the Court. Not a Court employee. She is an independent contractor. They sign on for so many weeks, months, etc. But this reporter told another lawyer we know in the Courtroom that as of June 1st she will start a 6 month contract with the Government at Gitmo. She said they are hiring a lot of Court Reporters and are paying BIG bucks. So big she couldn’t turn it down!” Wonder what’s going on at Gitmo?????
