The Palm Beach Post is responsible for this leaking to Gawker.com as well a= the Huffington Post. I found this: The deposition first has to be transcribed by the sitting court reporter. G=nerally either of the attending attorneys can order the deposition transcr=bed. The transcription is then held by that attorney to be referred to in =he courtroom at trial if needed. The attorney can pick and choose from the=witnesses' statements and refute what that person said in their deposi=ion in the courtroom. It is not considered ethical for the contents of a d=position to be used in any other manner other than to refute a witness'= statements in a courtroom. The deposition is generally not filed with the=court. And no, it is not public information if it is not filed with the co=rt. A court reporter may not divulge it's contents either. She is a notary public and swears in the witnesses and takes down the proceedings in a=deposition. If the deposition IS filed with the clerk's office, then y=s, the deposition may be read by anyone who looks at the court file. By the way, you look good. Off to Zorro on Wed.
