The judgments of the Investigating Chamber are signed by the President and the Registrar. They shall mention the names of the judges, the filing of exhibits and briefs, the reading of the report, the submissions of the public prosecutor and, where applicable, the hearing of the parties or their lawyers.
The chamber shall order the perpetrator of the offence to pay the civil party the sum it determines, in respect of costs not paid by the State and incurred by the latter. The parties may produce proof of the sums they request and the Chamber will take into account the fairness or economic situation of the convicted party. It may, even of its own motion, for reasons based on the same considerations, declare that there are no grounds for such an award.
