### 51 Certificate where indictment filed
> Where an indictment is filed in the Supreme Court by the Attorney-General, or other authorized officer, against a person then at large, whether that person is bound by any recognizance to appear to answer the indictment or is not so bound, the proper officer of the Supreme Court shall, at any time thereafter, if that person has not already appeared and pleaded to the indictment, grant to the officer filing the indictment, upon his application, a certificate that the indictment has been filed.
