Transition to Audio File Requests
Effective immediately, we are updating our procedure for accessing court records. Please note that we will no longer accept requests for written transcripts. Instead, parties interested in obtaining records will now be able to request audio files of court proceedings. This change allows users to utilize the transcriptionist of their choosing to convert these audio files into written transcripts.
For instructions on how to request audio files, and for more information on this new process, please visit our website Nunavut Courts - Transcript Requests
We appreciate your cooperation as we transition to this new model, aimed at providing more flexible and accessible services.
