Article 117 of Code of Civil Procedure

The presiding judge and the session clerk shall sign the original copy of the judgment containing the facts of the case, the reasons and the operative part, within three days of depositing the draft. That copy shall be kept immediately in the case file. An ordinary copy thereof may be given to any person, even if he has no involvement in the case, provided that the names or capacities of the litigants are not mentioned therein. If a circumstance prevents the presiding judge from signing the original copy of the judgment or delays signature in a manner prejudicial to justice or the interests of the litigants, the president of the court or his deputy may sign it. If any such circumstance affects the session clerk, the chief clerk may sign in his stead. All this shall be recorded in the margin of the original copy of the judgment. If the draft and the original copy of the judgment are lost, the president of the competent court may approve a copy of the judgment taken from the original copy, after the chamber that issued the judgment has verified its correctness, and it shall be stamped with the court's seal. It shall be deposited in place of the original copy in the case file. If this is impossible, the plaintiff may institute the action anew without fees.
