Bill Summary

AN ACT To repeal R.S. 13:981, relative to court reporter pools; to repeal provisions establishing a court reporter pool employed by the supreme court; and to repeal provisions relative to rules, procedures, and guidelines with respect to the court reporter pool.

AI Summary

This bill repeals a specific section of Louisiana Revised Statutes (R.S.) 13:981, which established a court reporter pool employed by the supreme court, along with any associated rules, procedures, and guidelines. In plain language, this means the bill is getting rid of the state's system where the supreme court directly employed a pool of court reporters. Court reporters are professionals who create verbatim transcripts of legal proceedings, ensuring an accurate record of what is said in court. By repealing this law, the bill effectively dissolves this particular state-managed court reporter system.
