Rule 227.3. Transcript of Testimony

    All post-trial motions shall contain a request designating that portion of the record to be transcribed in order to enable  the court to dispose of the motion. Within ten days after the filing of the motion, any other party may file an objection requesting that an additional, lesser or different portion of the record be transcribed. If no portion is indicated, the transcription of the record shall be deemed unnecessary to the disposition of the motion. The trial judge shall promptly decide the objection to the portion of the record to be transcribed.

    Note: Pa.R.J.A., 5000.5(a) requires the request to be delivered to (1) the reporter, (2) the clerk of the trial court in which the proceeding took place or in which the reporter is employed, (3) the district court administrator or the administrator's designee, and (4) in the case of an appeal, to the clerk of the appellate court. The request for transcription of the record may also be made in open court. See Pa.R.J.A. 5000.5(b).

    For rules governing transcript fees and their payment, see Pa.R.J.A. 5000.6, 5000.7 and 5000.11.
