Hearings shall be held in public.
However, the court may, on finding in its judgment that publicity is dangerous to order, the serenity of the proceedings, the dignity of the person or the interests of a third party, order, by judgment given in open court, that the proceedings shall be held in camera.
Where proceedings have been ordered to be held in camera, this shall apply to the delivery of separate judgments which may be given on incidents or objections as set out in article 459, paragraph 4.
The judgment on the merits must always be delivered in open court.
