Try these sample questions to review concepts for the CFJ Administrateurs des greffes exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 20+ question experience with AI tutoring.
1According to Senegal's Ministry of Justice, which function belongs to the greffe?
A.Choosing the sentence independently of the court.
B.Representing every accused person as defence counsel.
C.Keeping the original judgments and issuing authorized copies.
D.Conducting the prosecution in place of the ministère public.
Explanation: The Ministry identifies recording proceedings, preserving originals, and issuing copies among registry functions. Those functions support judicial work without transferring adjudication, prosecution, or defence to the greffe.
2What is the distinction between the minute of a judgment and an expédition?
A.The minute is the parties' draft and the expédition is the prosecutor's opinion.
B.Both are informal summaries prepared for the public.
C.The expédition replaces the original in the archive whenever it is issued.
D.The minute is the preserved original; an expédition is an issued copy.
Explanation: Preservation of the original and delivery of copies are distinct registry responsibilities. Issuing a copy does not remove or replace the archived original.
3In an ordinary contentious civil action commenced by assignation, what is the assignation's main purpose?
A.To summon the defendant before the identified court and state the claim.
B.To decide finally whether the claim is proved.
C.To certify that the defendant has accepted liability.
D.To authorize seizure regardless of whether an enforceable basis exists.
Explanation: An assignation is a procedural act introducing the claim and summoning the defendant. Its service does not by itself decide the merits or establish a right to every enforcement measure.
4Which official ordinarily exercises the ministère public's functions before a Tribunal de grande instance?
A.The president of the civil chamber acting as the defendant's lawyer.
B.The Procureur de la République and the parquet officers assisting that office.
C.The registry administrator acting on their own initiative.
D.A court-appointed expert deciding the prosecution.
Explanation: The Ministry describes a Procureur de la République attached to each Tribunal de grande instance. The parquet's functions are distinct from those of judges, registry staff, and experts.
5What distinction does the Ministry's description of a Tribunal de grande instance draw between magistrats du siège and magistrats du parquet?
A.The two expressions identify the same registry officers.
B.The siège performs only accounting, while the parquet archives judgments.
C.The siège exercises judicial functions; the parquet exercises ministère public functions.
D.The parquet is the appellate court for the siège's decisions.
Explanation: The Ministry lists judges within the siège and prosecutors within the parquet. Distinguishing these roles is necessary when routing files and understanding judicial procedure.
6A registry employee learns confidential information through a case file. Which conduct respects professional discretion?
A.Discussing it with friends provided the case number is omitted.
B.Sharing it with any public employee who is curious about the case.
C.Treating it as public because the courthouse is a public institution.
D.Using or disclosing it only through authorized duties and lawful channels.
Explanation: Senegal's civil service statute imposes professional discretion concerning information acquired through official duties. Public employment does not make every document or fact available for unrestricted disclosure.
7A requested copy differs from the signed original judgment. What should registry staff do?
A.Check the original and follow the authorized correction and issue procedure without altering the judicial decision.
B.Change the original so that it matches the requested copy.
C.Choose the wording preferred by the party paying the copying fee.
D.Issue both versions as equally authoritative.
Explanation: A registry copy must faithfully reflect the preserved original. Correcting a copying problem does not authorize staff to change what the court decided.
8A file is transferred between registry services. Which control best protects continuity and accountability?
A.Removing its identifier because the receiving team will assign another.
B.Recording the file identifier, contents, transfer date, sender, and recipient.
C.Sending only an oral message that the file probably arrived.
D.Keeping two unmarked versions so either can later serve as the original.
Explanation: Traceable transfer supports the registry's duty to preserve judicial records. Identifying what was transferred and who received it helps detect loss, omissions, and unauthorized substitutions.
9A party produces a decisive document without giving the opponent a fair opportunity to examine it. Which procedural concern arises?
A.Whether the registry prefers paper documents to electronic ones.
B.Whether the producing party has automatically won the case.
C.Whether the parties' opportunity to discuss the evidence has been respected.
D.Whether all documentary evidence must now be permanently excluded.
Explanation: Communication of documents supports a fair adversarial process. The issue is whether the opponent has a proper opportunity to respond, not whether the document's existence automatically decides the dispute.
10Which issue is raised by an exception d'incompétence?
A.Whether the defendant has already paid the debt.
B.Whether the claim's evidence proves fault.
C.Whether the successful party has received an enforceable copy.
D.Whether the court seised has jurisdiction to decide the dispute.
Explanation: An objection to jurisdiction challenges the authority of the court seised. It is distinct from a defence about payment or the substantive merits of the claim.
