§ 164. Emergency stenographers in criminal cases. Where the prompt
disposition of charges against a person accused of the commission of a
crime is deemed necessary, or the ends of justice require, the justice
presiding at a term of the supreme court where issues of fact are
triable, in his discretion, may employ one or more stenographers in
addition to the regularly assigned stenographer, to assist in the taking
and transcribing of the minutes of such trial. Such stenographer or
stenographers shall be paid for his services such reasonable
compensation as the justice shall by his certificate fix, together with
a reasonable sum for his necessary traveling expenses, if any, and
stationery. The sum so fixed shall be a charge upon the county in which
the term shall be held and shall be paid by the county treasurer upon
such certificate from the court fund or the fund from which jurors are
paid.
