Updating the Record
From [2]
When a deponent or attorney misses the proceeding, ask the court reporter to go on the record to document the occurrence. We recommend preparing a no-show deposition script for these circumstances. If you don’t have a script, make sure to note the following information:
- The names of all attorneys and their represented parties
- Names of all parties present
- The purpose of the deposition
- date and time of the scheduled deposition
- Description of attempts to contact the absent party/the method you used to contact them
- Description of the deponent’s proffered excuses for failing to appear (if any)
- Summary of your efforts to properly notice the deposition
