The public and other individuals should not have to pay for the costs of this election fraud nonsense which has no evidence nor any basis in fact. If it did, they would have shown some.
(oh, but Mike Lindell . . . yeah, right.)

If your question is not part of the lawsuit, then it is irrelevant to the lawsuit.
The court room is always recorded by a court recorder and a transcript is created. Many (most?) modern court rooms also keep an audio record in addition to (or instead of?) a court reporter.
Some courts allow cameras. (Just see YouTube as an example of videos taken by permission of the court.)
Courts try to be transparent.
What are you complaining about? Other than you don't like the outcome because the plaintiffs didn't even try to prove their case because their lawsuit was for the purpose of publicity.
