1. “(1) In the event no stenographic or electronic record of the evidence or proceedings at a hearing "or trial was made or, if so, cannot be transcribed or are not clearly understandable from the tape or recording, the appellant may prepare a narrative statement thereof from the best available means, including his/her recollection, for use instead of a transcript or for use as a supplement to or in lieu of an insufficient electronic recording. This statement shall be served on the appellee, who may serve objections or proposed amendments thereto within 10 days after service upon him/her. Thereupon the statement, with the objections or proposed amendments, shall be submitted to the trial court for settlement and approval, and as settled and approved shall be included in the record on appeal. (2) By agreement of the parties a narrative statement of all or any part of the evidence or, other proceedings at a hearing or trial may be substituted for or used in lieu of a stenographic transcript or an electronic recording.”
