§ 693. Docket and records

The clerk shall keep a docket, to be furnished by the state, of all causes pending in the court. Except as provided in section 454 of Title 22, he shall keep on file and preserve all process, pleadings and papers relating to causes in the district court which, together with the records of the court, shall be subject to inspection and examination by parties interested in those causes and, upon tender of the legal fees, he shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, duly certified copies of any records, pleadings, process or papers; except that he shall not disclose any materials or information required by law to be kept confidential. In a book kept for that purpose, he shall also make a record of all causes determined, but he need not spread at length upon the record, the process or the pleadings. Original court records shall be maintained for two years after final court action and thereafter may be maintained on microfilm.
