COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF ORANGE DAVID H. YAMASAKI Executive Officer and Clerk of the Court In unlimited civil proceedings, a party who has received a fee waiver pursuant to California Rules of Court rule 3.55 may request an official court reporter pursuant to California Rules of Court rule 2.956(b)(3) at least 10 calendar days prior to the trial or other matters in which oral evidence will be presented (“evidentiary hearing”) by submitting mandatory court form L-0790. The court, for good cause, may shorten or waive the 10-day requirement. The clerk will notify the party as soon as possible if no official court reporter will be available. Given the general unavailability of official court reporters, final notice of the availability of a court reporter may not be known until the day of the trial or evidentiary hearing.
