Rule 3113 Docket and Records

The prothonotary is the court clerk who handles official paperwork and records. This person is required to keep a running list of all cases that are currently active and all cases that have already been decided by the court.

Beyond that main list, the prothonotary must also keep any other records that the law requires or that the court needs to run properly. This helps make sure there is an organized, official record of everything that happens in the court.
