Q. Okay. Are you currently taking any medications that would impair you to recall events from the past or testify truthfully today?
A. No. I mean, I don't think -- I take medication, but I don't think that will affect my memory. I can't remember what they are, though.

Interesting cases and testimony submitted by scopists and court reporters.
What is a scopist?
A scopist is a professional who provides computer-aided transcription services for court reporters. The scopist receives the reporter's translated, unedited, unresearched notes on a computer disk or via modem or email. With the aid of specialized software and the scopist's skills of translating any undefined stenotype into English, punctuating, researching and formatting, flagging any questionable areas, the transcript is then returned to the reporter ready to be proofread.
