    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCCC14/1996

    A judge will not direct preparation and provision of transcripts of evidence from an earlier trial for use at a retrial as a matter of course; such an order is justified only where justice and fairness require it and where alternatives are inadequate; however, where transcripts have already been prepared by court reporters, the Registrar must furnish them to the parties on payment of the fee per page as directed.
