A UK justice minister says courts cannot be left in the analogue age, the federal judiciary reports progress on AI policy and case management, and California's legal aid community turns to guaranteeing every litigant the right to a record.
California's Supreme Court unanimously ruled that when no court reporter is available, trial courts must create an official verbatim record by electronic recording for civil litigants who cannot afford one, a narrow exception to the state's longtime ban. This edition gathers the opinion and the coverage explaining what it changes for the court record.
An Indiana appellate court flags apparent AI errors in a court reporter's transcript, Arizona rules that citing fake AI cases is sanctionable regardless of intent, and an Ohio suit tests whether AI transcripts are discoverable like email. The thread this edition: courts are putting the accountability on the person using the tool, not the tool itself.
California admits to high-risk AI it said it didn't have, Maryland counts more than 50 agencies already using AI, and a legal-tech acquisition extends the consolidation Yale warned about. The thread this edition: adoption is outrunning the transparency meant to govern it.
Texas's Supreme Court will decide whether an AI-assisted transcript can stand as the official record, California's reporter shortage leaves millions of hearings with no record at all, and a wave of AI-in-court stories circles one question: who is accountable for the record?
California courts are quietly piloting an AI 'clerk' that drafts orders and research memos for judges, and the public may never know when it touches a case. Our read on that story and the AI-and-the-law coverage worth your time this edition.
Federal judges weigh the risks, governments pilot AI transcription, and courts test generative tools. Our rank-ordered read on the AI-in-courts stories that matter for the court community this edition.

A quiet news week surfaces a sharp angle: as AI companies build revenue models, courts are next in line to rule on what is and is not permitted. Two links worth your time this edition.
A Yale Law Journal critique of privatized court infrastructure, judges adopting AI with caution, and a court chatbot that stumbled. This edition is about accountability: who controls court technology, and what happens when it falls short.
A bipartisan Senate bill puts AI court transcription on the federal agenda, a court-reporting startup raises $49M, and an access-to-justice AI partnership resurfaces. Our read on the stories that matter for the court community this edition.
