The Hawaii Supreme Court is seeking nominations or applications for two unpaid positions on the six-member Hawaii Board of Certified Shorthand Reporters.

The two members selected must be “official” certified shorthand reporters who are court-employed. These members shall fill the remainder of terms expiring on October 31, 2022 and on October 31, 2023.

The Board examines applicants for certification as Hawaii certified shorthand reporters and proposes rules and regulations for testing, licensing, and supervision of certified shorthand reporters; for standards governing conduct of Hawaii certified shorthand reporters; and for discipline, censure, suspension, or revocation of certification. Members serve staggered three-year terms.

Applications or nominations must be submitted by Friday, January 29, 2021, to:

Judiciary Communications and Community Relations Office
417 South King Street
Honolulu, Hawaii 96813
By facsimile to 808-539-4801 or by e-mail to pao@courts.hawaii.gov

Applications or nominations must include, at minimum:

· A brief biography or resume of the applicant or nominee, including the applicant’s or nominee’s current employment.

· At least two references.

· If a nominee, an agreement to be a nominee.

The names of all applicants or nominees will be made public in an announcement seeking comments about them. After comments are received, the Hawaii Supreme Court will select individuals to fill the vacancies.
