OAC Rule 27. Requests for Transcripts of Hearings Not in Connection with a Petition to Review.

A.  A party or other interested person may request a copy of the audio recording or a written transcript of a hearing or part of a hearing.  A party or other interested person is limited to the claimant, the respondent, the employer, the adjusting agent, or an attorney or designated representative of any of the parties.  A witness may request an audio copy or a written transcript only of the witness' testimony.

B.  The request for an audio recording or a written transcript must include the date, the time, and the location of the hearing.  A request for a written transcript must also include the name and address of the transcriptionist designated by the person making the request.  When a written transcript is requested, the OAC shall forward a copy of the audio recording to the designated transcriptionist.  The requesting party is responsible for the cost of preparing the transcript.
