The judge responsible for carrying out or supervising the performance of an investigative measure may establish that the parties have reached an agreement, even in part.
As soon as the investigative measure has been carried out, the proceedings shall continue at the behest of the judge. The judge may, within the limits of his jurisdiction, immediately hear the parties in their observations or pleadings, even on the premises, and immediately rule on their claims.
The minutes, opinions or reports drawn up, on the occasion of or following the execution of an investigative measure shall be sent or given in copy to each of the parties by the clerk of the court who drew them up or by the technician who drew them up, as the case may be. A mention of this is made on the original.
The judge may have a sound, visual or audiovisual recording made of all or part of the investigative steps he or she takes. The recording shall be kept at the court registry. Each party may request that a copy or transcript of the recording be given to them, at their own expense.

The omission or inaccuracy of a statement intended to establish the regularity of a transaction may not render it null and void if it is established, by any means, that the legal requirements were, in fact, observed.
