L.R. 54-4, the cost of a transcript of any court proceeding is not
taxable unless, before the cost is incurred, it is approved by the Court
or stipulated by counsel in writing to be recoverable. Unless the order
or stipulation otherwise specifies, the taxable cost of such a transcript
will be limited to the cost of the original and one copy of the transcript
prepared after the proceeding for ordinary, non-expedited delivery and
billed at the rates set by the Judicial Conference of the United States.
