Text: 47 Fusibond seeks $414.85 for a copy of the deposition transcript of its president, Richard Krause. This bill includes $395.65 for the 193 page deposition transcript, and $19.20 for 60 pages of exhibits. Because Fusibond was already in possession of the deposition exhibits--plaintiff provided extra copies of the exhibits to defendant at the deposition and produced the same exhibits during discovery--we will not allow Fusibond to recover the costs of copying the 60 pages of exhibits ($19.20). As for the 193 page deposition transcript, $2.05 per page 6 is far above the $0.75 rate established by the Judicial Conference for a deposition copy. Accordingly, we reduce the cost to be taxed against plaintiff for a copy of the deposition transcript of Richard Krause to $144.75. 7
