Hi, I’m a victim of crime and want to get a court recording from the magistrates court for the plea and sentence hearings. The sentence hearing was late last year so I’m assuming the recordings are available.

Can you advise what reason I should indicate in the application.

If in Vic, you can't. You need to ask the prosecution for a copy of the audio recording.
