Votes are counted by the committee provided for in article L. 723-13. The results are announced publicly by the chairman of the committee. The list of elected candidates, drawn up in descending order of the number of votes obtained by each of them, is immediately displayed at the commercial court registry.
Three copies of the minutes of the elections are signed by the members of the committee. The first copy is sent to the public prosecutor, the second to the prefect and the third is kept at the clerk’s office of the commercial court.
