Judge Deems Digital Audio Sufficient to Make Ruling

A U.S. district judged ruled that an audio transcript of a trial was sufficient to make rulings on post-trial motions. The plaintiff's attorneys argued that the judge need only to listen to the portions of audio that the parties have cited in their briefs, and they did clarify that they have no intention of creating a transcript from the audio recording. All parties involved did recognize that the case may still require a transcript if it is appealed.
