of the court shall, upon request, provide to a parent or guardian of the child who
is the subject of the proceeding and the attorney of the parent or guardian a copy

pays the fee for the copy in accordance with subsection 2. 2. Each board of county commissioners shall adopt a sliding scale for determining
the amount to be paid for a copy of a sound recording or transcript of a proceeding
pursuant to subsection 1 for a proceeding that was held in a court in its county. The sliding scale must be based on the ability of the parent or guardian to pay. The court shall review each case and make a finding as to the reasonableness of
the charge in relation to the ability of the parent or guardian to pay. To the extent that the court determines that a parent or guardian is unable to pay
for a copy of the recording or transcript pursuant to subsection 1, the cost of providing
the copy of the sound recording or transcript is a charge against the county in which
the proceeding was held.
