### sec.233 Interim filing of facsimile copies
This section applies if—
an appropriate person mentioned in section 232 files in the Supreme Court a facsimile copy of a sealed copy of a relevant order or an amendment made to a relevant order; and
the facsimile copy otherwise complies with any requirements for filing orders under the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 1999 .
The Supreme Court must treat the facsimile copy as a sealed copy of the relevant order or the amendment made to the relevant order.
However, if the sealed copy of the relevant order or amendment is not filed within 10 days after the facsimile copy is filed, the effect of filing the facsimile copy ends.
If the sealed copy of the relevant order or amendment is filed within 10 days after the facsimile copy is filed, the sealed copy is taken to have been filed on the day the facsimile copy was filed.
Despite the effect of filing a facsimile copy of a relevant order or amendment ending in circumstances mentioned in subsection (3) , any forfeiture already made in relation to the order is not affected.
