The majority of experts in the field of forensic medicine maintain that the minutes of the medicolegal autopsy should be taken by the forensic pathologist. The authors argue that it is the public prosecutor who is obliged to draw up the minutes, whereas the forensic pathologist issues the expert opinion. To support their stance, the authors make frequent references to several provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code of 1997. The authors also imply that due to organizational reasons and the ratio legis of the aforementioned code, the forensic pathologist should not be assigned the role of the minutes-taker, despite the lack of a specific exclusion rule governing such a case. Possible consequences caused by the lack of the properly drawn up minutes are briefly discussed as well.
法医学领域的大多数专家认为，法医解剖记录应由法医病理学家撰写。作者认为，有义务起草记录的是检察官，而法医病理学家出具专家意见。为支持他们的立场，作者经常援引1997年《刑事诉讼法》的若干条款。作者还暗示，由于组织原因和上述法典的立法理由，尽管缺乏针对此类案件的具体排除规则，但法医病理学家不应被赋予记录员的角色。文中还简要讨论了缺乏妥善起草的记录可能导致的后果。
