CR 75.02 Transcript of evidence and proceedings

    (1) If there be designated for inclusion any proceedings that were not electronically recorded but were stenographically recorded, the court reporter shall file promptly in the trial court the original and one copy of the transcript of the portion or portions thereof included in the designation. If the designation includes only a portion or portions of the reporter's transcript, the court reporter at the request of the appellant shall file such additional portions as the appellee would reasonably require to enable him or her to complete the record on appeal and if the appellant fails to do so the trial court on motion may require the additional material needed to be so furnished. Initially the cost of a transcript will be borne by the party designating it.

    (2) Except in cases in which the death penalty was sought at trial, unless otherwise directed by the court, the transcript of proceedings shall include only those portions of the voir dire or opening statements and closing arguments by counsel which were properly objected to in the proceedings in the trial court and which are designated by one of the parties to be a part of the record on appeal.

    (3) In the event any of the proceedings designated for inclusion have been electronically recorded, it shall not be necessary that they be transcribed, and in lieu of a transcript the original tapes or recordings shall be transmitted by the clerk pursuant to Rule 75.07.
