Limited Jurisdiction Courts are required to Record all Proceedings Electronically

ARLJ 13 LIMITED JURISDICTION COURTS ARE REQUIRED TO RECORD ALL PROCEEDINGS ELECTRONICALLY (a) Generally. All limited jurisdiction courts shall make an electronic record of all proceedings and retain the record for at least as long as the record retention schedule dictates. The judicial officer shall assure that all case participants identify themselves for the record in keeping with RALJ 5.2(a). (b) Nonelectronic Record in Emergency. In the event of an equipment failure or other situation making an electronic recording impossible, the court may order the proceeding to be recorded by nonelectronic means. The nonelectronic record must be made at the court’s expense, and in the event of an appeal, any necessary transcription of the nonelectronic record must be made at the court’s expense.
