( a ) In cases in which an original affidavit is allowed to be used it shall, at the time when it is used, be delivered to and left with the proper officer who shall send it to be filed. ( b ) A copy of an affidavit may in all cases be used, the original affidavit having been previously filed, and the copy duly attested. ( c ) A photostatic copy of an original affidavit which has been filed may be used, if certified by the solicitor who has filed the same to be a true copy thereof and that the original thereof has been filed." 2. This rule shall be construed together with the Rules of the Superior Courts and may be cited as the Rules of the Superior Courts (No. 1), 1978. EXPLANATORY NOTE. These Rules, which amend Rule 16 of Order 40 of the Rules of the Superior Courts, provide that a photostatic copy of an affidavit—certified by the solicitor who has filed the affidavit to be a true copy—may be used in court instead of an attested copy.
