LCRLJ 79
             BOOKS AND RECORDS KEPT BY THE CLERK


     (a)  Records. Records are governed by Title 3 of the
     Revised Code of Washington.

     (b)  Other Books and Records Kept by Clerk

          (1)  Exhibits.  Exhibits shall be kept with the
          Court file unless they are oversize. Any
          inspection of an exhibit must be in the presence
          of the Clerk or a Deputy Clerk unless authorized
          by an order of the Court. (Amended Sept. 1, 2005).

          (2)  Rejection of Unsuitable Material.  The Clerk
          shall not accept for filing in the Court file
          matters which should be filed as an exhibit or
          other material not to be included by reason of
          LCRLJ 5(d)(6).  When the Clerk is uncertain as to
          whether a matter is suitable for filing, he or she
          shall seek the advice of the Civil Judge before
          filing the same. (Amended Sept. 1, 2005).

          (3)  Withdrawal of Files.  No file may be removed
          from the Clerk's Office without an order of the
          Court, except as herein provided: an attorney,
          legal intern, paralegal registered with the
          Spokane County Bar Association, District Court
          Probation Officer, or Pre-Trial Release Evaluator
          may withdraw a file without a specific order of
          the Court.  A person withdrawing a file and
          failing to return same file by the close of
          business of the same day the file was withdrawn,
          shall lose the privilege of withdrawing files
          until the previously withdrawn file is returned.
          Failure to return the file after notice from the
          Clerk's Office of a violation of this rule may
          result in the imposition of terms or other
          appropriate sanctions.  Any person withdrawing a
          file and leaving it with a Judge or Judicial
          Secretary shall have the duty to immediately
          correct the check out record in the Clerk's
          Office, showing the file was, in fact, left with a
          Judge or Judicial Secretary.

          (4)  Items Required to be Sealed by the Clerk's
          Office are as follows:

               (A)  Probation Department Investigation
                    reports for sentencing procedures;
               (B)  Alcohol evaluations and reports;
               (C)  Mental Health evaluations and reports;
               (D)  Drug Evaluations and reports;
               (E)  Pre-trial release evaluations and recommendations; and
               (F)  Any other item ordered to be sealed by a
                    Judge or classified as confidential by
                    statute, rule or regulation.  [See LARLJ 9.]
