Art. 259 Liability of clerk of court

Here's a plain English summary of this rule:

If someone files a pleading or document with the court clerk, and a third party later causes damage related to information in that filing, the clerk cannot be held responsible for it. This means the clerk's office is protected from lawsuits when the harm comes from someone else's actions, not from anything the clerk did wrong.

In simple terms, this rule protects court clerks from being blamed for problems they didn't cause. If information in a filed document gets misused or causes harm because of what a third party does, the person harmed cannot sue the clerk's office over it. The clerk's job is to keep records and file documents, not to control what other people do with the information in those records.
