Court reporters
Information
Court reporters are usually employed by newspaper and legal reports companies. They attend in court to take a note of interesting or important cases and to report them in the newspapers or in the legal reports.
Court reporters may sit anywhere in court and they do not wear any special clothes. They do not play any role in the proceedings - they are simply there to take notes and report about cases.
