1.17 No Transcript Available to Jury is a set of instructions issued by a court when a jury has requested a transcript of testimony given in court, but no transcript is available. This situation usually occurs when either the court reporter has made an error in recording the proceedings or when no court reporter was present at all. In these cases, the judge will typically direct the jury to rely on their own notes and recollection of the testimony. In some jurisdictions, the judge may also ask the jury to review an audio or video recording of the proceedings as an alternative to a transcript.
