    Who Can Get Copies of a Deposition
    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida
    As a witness for the prosectution, I gave a deposition to the defendant"s attorney. Do I have a right to get a copy of the deposition? Should it be furnished to me or do I need to pay for it, if I'm entitled to it? To make an amendment to a deposition, when I go to read it within 30 days, can I take another person with me to go over it to make notes or amendments for me other than an attorney? thank you.

    You can ask the defendant's attorney if they will provide you with a copy, or allow you to purchase a copy for the cost of copying. I don't know if the court reporter will sell you a copy, as you're not a litigant, but even if so you can expect to pay about $1.50 per page for a copy from a court reporter.

    Why do you need somebody else with you to help you make notes? If you wish for somebody else to go along, ask the attorney if it's okay.

    Thanks for your reply. I don't really need anyone to go along to take notes, etc. but a friend who has professional secretarial skills offered to type any changes if I felt they were needed.
