Administration of Justice Law (No. 44 of 1973) - Sect 145

Documentary evidence

145.
(1) All documentary evidence shall be filed in the record and initialed by the Judge and dated with the date of its receipt by him.
(2) If any document is in a language other than Sinhala, there shall be filed with it a Sinhala translation thereof or of so much thereof as is material.
(3) When any documentary evidence is of such a nature that it is impractical or inconvenient to file the same in the record, the Judge may after initialing it for the purpose of identification return the same to the person producing it, who shall be legally bound to pro-duce it again before the court, but the Judge shall in that case cause a copy to be made of such part or portion of the document as may be relevant and filed with the record.
