ADMINISTRATIVE CIRCULAR NO. 17-94 November 14, 1994

TO: ALL TRIAL COURT JUDGES AND CLERKS OF COURTS/ BRANCH CLERKS OF COURT

SUBJECT: ONE WEEK AT THE END OF EVERY SEMESTER MAY BE DEVOTED TO DOCKET INVENTORY

In administrative Circular No. 10-94, dated 29 June 1994, the Court reiterates the directive to all trial judges for the physical inventory of their docket as required by Administrative Circular No. 1, dated 28 January 1988.

However, there are reports from trial judges that in the required inventory of their docket certain discrepancies are unavoidable and can be rectified by concluding a re-inventory thereof.

In this regard, Administrative Circular No. 10-94 is hereby amended so as to authorize trial judges to devote one week of each semester to this audit and inventory, and trials need not be scheduled on the said period.

The trial judges, clerks of court and branch clerks of court must report to this court the result of the re-inventory conducted within ten (10) days upon completion thereof.

14 November 1994.
