    Description
    This course offers students the opportunity to study and apply theory concepts to create stenographic and voice writing outlines for standard legal terms, commonly-used legal phrases, and general speech while applying writing skills to attain a writing speed of 120-140 words per minute. Familiarization with workers' compensation, personal injury, and real estate/property law terminology and corresponding stenographic outlines is emphasized through a variety of lectures, assignments, and class discussions. One five-hour courtroom observation is required per California code. Students are invited and encouraged to share their reflections on observed legal proceedings with class members during class discussion. Satisfactory Progress
