Who do I contact to get this transcript?
<p>I want to read a particular trial transcript from <a href="https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/15867552/jones-v-desantis/" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><em>Jones v. Desantis</em></a>, which was a recent case concerning the re-enfranchisement of Florida felons.</p>
<p><a href="https://ecf.flnd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/DktRpt.pl?106435" rel="nofollow noreferrer">PACER link</a></p>
<p>I have a PACER account and I think I've located the document I want. (ECF #402).  The docket report says:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Transcript may be viewed at the court public terminal or purchased through the Court Reporter/Transcriber before the deadline for Release of Transcript Restriction. After that date it may be obtained through PACER.  …
Release of Transcript Restriction set for <strong>8/6/2020</strong>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>When I clicked through last month to download the transcript, I got <a href="https://ecf.flnd.uscourts.gov/doc1/04916726460" rel="nofollow noreferrer">a page with the same message</a>.</p>
<p>But it's now 8/18 and I still get the same page with the same message.</p>
<p>Why isn't the transcript available?  Can I do anything about this?  Did the clerk drop the ball, or am I just waiting for the released document to make its way into PACER?</p>

<p>I contacted the court reporter. She did not know why the transcript was unavailable or when it would become available.   But although her price for transcripts was usually much (9×) higher, she offered to send me a copy if I paid her what PACER would have charged, had it been available there.</p>
<p>I waited a few weeks to see if the transcript would appear.  When it did not, rather than spend time pursuing the court clerk (which I didn't know how to do anyway) I paid the reporter for the transcript.</p>
