furnished by court reporters for the district courts.

requested by the parties, including the United States, at rates pre-
scribed by the court subject to the approval of the Judicial Conference.

clerk for the records of court. Fees for transcripts furnished in crim-
inal or habeas corpus proceedings to persons allowed to sue, defend, 
or appeal in forma pauperis shall be paid by the United States out of 
money appropriated for that purpose. Fees for transcripts furnished 
in proceedings brought under section 2255 of this title to persons per-
mitted to sue or appeal in forma pauperis shall be paid by the United 
States out of money appropriated for that purpose if the trial judge 
or a circuit judge certifies that the suit or appeal is not frivolous and 
that the transcript is needed to decide the issue presented*by the suit 
or appeal. 
Fees for transcripts furnished in other proceedings to 
persons permitted to appeal in forma pauperis shall also be paid by 
the United States if the trial judge or a circuit judge certifies that 
the appeal is not frivolous (but presents a substantial question). The 
reporter may require any party requesting a transcript to prepay the 
estimated fee in advance except as to transcripts that are to be paid 
for by the United States."
