In this case, the evidence that the public prosecutor, the defendant or the defense counsel requested to be examined before the ruling prescribed in the preceding paragraph is deemed to be the evidence that was requested to be examined in the inter-trial arrangement proceeding and the words "the date of the pretrial arrangement proceeding" prescribed in Articles 316-6 to 316-10 and 316-12 are deemed to be "the date of the inter-trial arrangement proceeding" and the word "the records of the pretrial arrangement proceeding" prescribed in paragraph (2) of the same Article is deemed to be "the records of the inter-trial arrangement proceeding."
