NCRA announces key changes in management

As reported by this blog, court reporting is a practice that is steeped in history and tradition. As such, the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA) has become the industry's leading educational resource for all issues related to court reporting. It also just announced a few key promotions of some of its members.

One of the members being promoted was Nativa Wood of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, who will be serving on the NCRA's Board of Directors. Wood has been an official reporter with the Dauphin County Court of Common Pleas for 35 years, and has been the chief reporter for the past 10 years. Wood was also president of the NCRA from 1990 to 1992 and has been actively involved with the organization since 1983.

In addition, Sara Nageotte of Jefferson, Ohio, who was elected as vice president, has been an official reporter for nearly 15 years and has also worked in Pennsylvania. Nageotte is currently with the U.S. District Court in Cleveland. She has testified on behalf of court reporters to the Ohio Senate Finance Committee as well as presented to the county bar associations, the Ohio Judicial Conference as well as at NCRA conventions.

Elected as President of the association was Tami Smith, who has been an official reporter since 1990. Currently working out or Battle Creek, Michigan with Circuit Judge James Kingsley, Smith has also served on the National Court Reporters Foundation's Board of Trustees and the advisory boards of two court reporting programs. She is the recipient of the Michigan Association of Professional Court Reporters' Alton Cobb Award, which recognizes her "outstanding efforts and time devoted as a volunteer and chief examiner."

With these experienced leaders at the helm of the NCRA, the industry and practice can expect to see a bright future. As these individuals are not just adept at recording deposition transcripts in real-time, many also caption television programs and live event broadcasting.

If lawyers or event planning companies in the Wisconsin area wish to use court reporters that can provide real-time reporting or video deposition services, they may want to contact an experienced court reporting firm.
