(Civil Procedure Code, CPC)

¹ The court keeps a re­cord of each hear­ing. This in­cludes in par­tic­u­lar:

a.

the place and time of the hear­ing;

b.

the com­pos­i­tion of the court;

c.

the pres­ence of the parties and their rep­res­ent­at­ives;

d.

the pray­ers for re­lief, ap­plic­a­tions and de­clar­a­tions made on re­cord by the parties;

e.

the court's rul­ings;

f.

the sig­na­ture of the clerk.

² State­ments re­lat­ing to the facts of the case are placed on re­cord un­less they are already in­cluded in their writ­ten sub­mis­sions. In ad­di­tion, they may be re­cor­ded on tape, by video, or by oth­er ap­pro­pri­ate tech­nic­al means.

³ The court de­cides on ap­plic­a­tions for rec­ti­fic­a­tion of the re­cord.
