The Montana Supreme Court has denied a motion for transcripts filed by the appellant in State v. B. Ackerman, Cause No. DA 25-0342, according to a court order.

The order provides no elaboration on the grounds for denial. Transcript motions in criminal appeals are typically filed when a defendant argues they need court records to support their appeal, particularly in cases where cost is a factor.

The denial does not necessarily end the appeal itself, but may limit the materials available to the appellant in pressing their case before the court.
