Rule 205. Record of Proceedings. Transcript of Record.

 A. A record of any proceedings before a magisterial district judge, including proof of service, returns, entry of judgment and other matters, appearing on a form prescribed by the State Court Administrator shall for all purposes be considered to be a sufficient record of those proceedings.

 B. A copy of any such record appearing on such a form, certified to be a true copy by the magisterial district judge in whose office the record is on file or by any other official custodian of the record, shall for all purposes be considered to be a sufficient transcript of the record, including any judgment, order or other disposition contained therein.

 C. Any Act of Assembly or part thereof inconsistent with this rule is suspended, to the extent of such inconsistency.

   Official Note

   Subdivision A defines the contents of records of proceedings before magisterial district judges, which makes use of prescribed forms. Subdivision B provides that certified true copies of these records are sufficient ‘‘transcripts,’’ for whatever purpose the transcript is to be used. Subdivision C suspends inconsistent Acts of Assembly to the extent of their inconsistency.
