Creating Objections
If you would like to create an Objection clip take the following steps:
- First, when creating your Transcript Designation (See 3. Transcript) under MORE Settings Transcripts Designations Create, make sure you checked "Will be used for objection type” (See graphic below).
- This will ensure objections appear as dots/exclamation points on the right of your transcript instead of the left alongside your designations.
- Additionally, this will allow you to further select an Objection Reason (e.g. Calls for Speculation) after selecting your objection reason (e.g. Plaintiff Objections to Defense Initial Designations).
- This will ensure objections appear as dots/exclamation points on the right of your transcript instead of the left alongside your designations.
- Click on the first line you'd like to set as your objection starting point, a green arrow will appear.
- Click on the last line you'd like to set as the end point, and a red arrow will appear.
- Choose your Objection from the drop-down.
- Choose your Objection Reason from the drop-down immediate below your Objection selected in #4.
- Add any Notes for the objection.
- Click "Submit".
If you received designations from an opposing party, or have a table or spreadsheet of designations which you would like to apply to a transcript, you can do so easily with the Bulk Clip Import. The following steps will assist in accomplishing such:
- Make sure the needed transcript Designation or Issue has been created under SETTINGS > Transcripts.
- Create your designations in Excel in the following format, and save as a .csv file.
page-start | line-start | page-end | line-end | notes
Note: If you are bulk importing objection types you can do so by referencing the objection type in a 6th column. - Navigate to the Bulk Clip Import section of the appropriate transcript and choose the Designation or Issue to be applied.
- Browse to locate the .csv file, then click "Import Clips".
Your designations will automatically be populated in the deposition.
- To remove an individual page/line clip, navigate to the Browse section of your transcript. Select the designation type you need to work with from the drop-down. Locate the individual clip(s) which you need to remove, click the trash icon, and the clip will be immediately removed.
- To remove all page/line clips for a particular designation type, navigate to the Browse section of your transcript. Select the designation type you need to work with from the drop-down. Once selected click clear all at the bottom of the list. You will be prompted to confirm you want to delete all clips for that designation. Once confirmed, all clips for the selected designation will be removed.
Please note, once clips have been deleted, they cannot be automatically restored.
