The record is the case. Judges rule on it, appellate courts review it, and briefs cite it page and line.

Federal proceedings in South Carolina run through the District of South Carolina. Like federal courts everywhere, they record hearings digitally and route transcript production through approved transcribers, a list we are on in more than 30 bankruptcy courts around the country.
