Definition of clerk's record
A clerk's record is an official report of the proceedings in a case, including the filed papers, a verbatim transcript of the trial or hearing (if any), and tangible exhibits. It is also known as a record or bundle in some jurisdictions.
For example, in a court case, the clerk's record would include all the documents filed by the parties, the transcript of the trial or hearing, and any physical evidence presented in court. This record is important for the appeals process, as it provides a complete and accurate account of what happened in the case.
Another example of a clerk's record is in a land deed kept at a county courthouse. This is a public record that is open to view by the public, and it is the responsibility of the government to keep it.
A judge is a law student who marks his own examination papers.
