For Property Managers

Property owners or managers who are respondents in a discrimination hearing under N.J.S.A. 10:5-1 et seq. § 10:5-24 generally have the option to obtain a verbatim record of the proceedings by requesting a transcript at their own expense. Operators who anticipate needing a detailed record of testimony or rulings for any subsequent review typically arrange for this request early in the process. Keeping a transcript can support accurate documentation of what occurred during the hearing.

For Tenants

As a party to a hearing under N.J.S.A. 10:5-1 et seq. § 10:5-24, a tenant or complainant has the right to request an official transcript of the proceedings, provided they cover the cost of its preparation. Having a written record of the hearing can be relevant when pursuing further review or appeal of a decision. Tenant-rights organizations or legal aid services can help explain how this right fits into the broader process under New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination.
