Best Answer

Go to the office of the Clerk Of The Court for the appropriate court and request to see the court file for that particular case. From the court file find out the name of the court stenographer. Contact that person, or company, and request a copy of the transcript. There WILL be a charge for this.

Are transcripts from court available to the public?

Sort of. Normally court transcripts are considered part of the public record, and you can go to the courthouse and request copies (there's usually a copying fee involved). However, for some court cases, the records are "sealed". Depending on the jurisdiction, this might mean anything from "you can view them if you get a court order specifically unsealing them" to "the court destroys them completely."
