Duties and Role of the Assistant Clerk

In cases of the death or disability of the clerk, the assistant clerk assumes the duties of the clerk until the position is filled or disability removed.
The assistant clerk acts as deputy to the clerk of the court.
Other duties may be assigned by the judges of the court or the clerk of the court.
The assistant clerk operates under the general supervision and control of the clerk of the court.

Repeal of Prior Provision Regarding Clerk Duties

The Act repeals the last sentence of Section 10 of The Land Registration Act.
Previously, the Register of Deeds for the city of Manila was designated to perform the clerk’s duties in case of death or disability.
This repeal transfers such responsibilities to the assistant clerk instead.

Expedited Passage of the Act

The Act is expedited in accordance with Section 2 of "An Act prescribing the order of procedure by the Commission in the enactment of laws," passed on September 26, 1900.
This reflects the public good requiring the immediate enactment of the law.

Effective Date

The Act takes effect immediately upon its passage on February 3, 1903.
