  • commission: refers to the Indiana utility regulatory commission. See Indiana Code 8-1-1-1
  • Property: includes personal and real property. See Indiana Code 1-1-4-5
  • Reporter: Makes a record of court proceedings and prepares a transcript, and also publishes the court's opinions or decisions (in the courts of appeals).
  • Testimony: Evidence presented orally by witnesses during trials or before grand juries.
  • Transcript: A written, word-for-word record of what was said, either in a proceeding such as a trial or during some other conversation, as in a transcript of a hearing or oral deposition.
   Sec. 8. The cost of preparing the transcript of the record, on reasonable terms fixed by general administrative order of the commission, shall be paid in the first instance upon receipt of the transcript by the person filing the written request for the transcript, and the amount shall be stated as paid in the certificate of the secretary which authenticates the transcript of record. However, all costs incurred in connection with the appeal shall be awarded and taxed as provided in other appeals of a civil nature in the supreme court or the court of appeals. That part of the cost of the transcript of the record which is incurred by reason of the transcription of oral testimony by any reporter appointed by the commission shall become the property of the reporter when paid.
