§ 1610.4 Deposition Transcripts. (a) Transcripts of depositions of witnesses compelled by subpoena to appear during a Board investigation, shall be recorded solely by an official reporter designated by the person conducting the deposition.

Are deposition transcripts public record?

Unlike most trial transcripts, a deposition transcript and the audio or video of deposition testimony are not public records. All parties to a case in which a deposition is taken, as well as a deponent are entitled to obtain a copy of a deposition transcript.

Is a deposition transcript privileged?

Thus, even with a finding that an attorney's selection of deposition preparation documents is privileged, opposing counsel still has a means to discover the documents reviewed in preparation for a deposition to the extent the witness relied on them to testify.
