Official Court Reporter - Rover - State of North Carolina

The North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts seeks a certified Court Reporter to support its mission to protect and preserve the rights and liberties of all the people by providing a fair, independent and accessible forum for the just, timely and economical resolution of their legal affairs.

An Official Court Reporter records proceedings in court trials, hearings, and conferences using either stenotype or voice writing reporting methods; accurately transcribes the record of court proceedings and delivers certified transcripts in a timely fashion pursuant to applicable rules; reads aloud, as circumstances require, statements made by participants during court proceedings; ensures that evidence has been properly introduced and marked as an exhibit; takes dictation of orders and findings of fact and types them for a judge's signature; maintains files, notes, tapes, and records to facilitate later reference and use; responds to inquiries from court personnel, attorneys, citizens, and prisoners; completes activity reports and travel reimbursement forms, and submits them to the Administrative Office of the Courts in a timely fashion.

Though supervised on a daily basis by the presiding judge, this Roving Court Reporter position reports to the Court Reporting Manager and is subject to assignments in various judicial districts as court coverage dictates. This position is primarily assigned to Mecklenburg County and many surrounding areas.

Rovers receive standard travel reimbursement and are paid for transcripts in addition to base salary.
