11th Cir. Pattern Jury Instr. (Civil) 2.3
Use of Recorded Conversations and Transcripts
Now you’re going to hear [a] recorded conversation[s]. This is proper
evidence for you to consider. Please listen to it very carefully. I’m going to allow
you to have a transcript of the recording [prepared by name of preparer] to help
you identify speakers and guide you through the recording. But remember that it is
the recording that is evidence – not the transcript. If you believe at any point that
the transcript says something different from what you hear on the recording,
disregard that portion of the transcript and rely instead on what you hear.
[In this case, there are two transcripts because there is a difference of
opinion about what is said on the recording. You may disregard any portion of one
or both transcripts if you believe they reflect something different from what you
hear on the recording. It’s what you hear on the recording that is evidence – not the
transcripts.]

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
