Heading: use of the transcripts

Text: 20 Our decision with respect to the transcripts submitted to the jury in written form applies with equal force to Chiarizio's third claim of error. Chiarizio challenges the decision of the district court to allow an FBI agent to read verbatim on the witness stand from the government-prepared transcripts. Chiarizio did not present equivalent testimony. 21 While this procedure is arguably inconsistent with Bryant and Carson, which require that both sides be allowed to present their respective versions of disputed transcripts, Chiarizio's failure to raise his objections to the transcripts in a timely manner or to provide alternate versions controls. This is so whether the transcripts were read into the record from the witness stand or given to the jury in typewritten form. 4 Accordingly, we reject this claim of error.
