DESTROYED.
1. If the unit, in the regular course of business or activity,
has recorded or received any memorandum, writing, entry, print,
document, representation, or combination thereof, of any act,
transaction, occurrence, event, or communication from any source, and
in the regular course of business has caused any or all of the same
to be recorded, copied, or reproduced by any photographic,
photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic, electronic
imaging, electronic data processing, or other process which
accurately reproduces or forms a durable medium for accurately and
legibly reproducing an unaltered image or reproduction of the
original, the original may be destroyed. Such reproduction, when
satisfactorily identified, is as admissible in evidence as the
original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding whether
the original is in existence or not and an enlargement or facsimile
of such reproduction is likewise admissible in evidence if the
original recording, copy, or reproduction is in existence and
available for inspection. The introduction of a reproduced record,
enlargement, or facsimile, does not preclude admission of the
original.
2. The electronically imaged, copied, or otherwise reproduced
record or document maintained or received by the unit, when certified
over the signature of a designated employee of the unit, shall be
considered to be satisfactorily identified. Certified documents are
deemed to have been imaged or copied or otherwise reproduced
accurately and unaltered in the regular course of business, and such
documents are admissible in any judicial or administrative proceeding
as evidence. Additional proof of the official character of the
person certifying the record or authenticity of the person's
signature shall not be required. Whenever the unit or an employee of
the unit is served with a summons, subpoena, subpoena duces tecum, or
order directing production of such records, the unit or employee may
comply by transmitting a copy of the record certified as described
above to the district court.
