If you discover an error in a document that has already been filed with the court, do you need to file a corrected copy of the document immediately or should you wait for a corresponding request from the court?

Article 269 of the Code of Civil Procedure provides that the court may, on its own initiative or at the request of the participants in the case, correct typos or arithmetic errors made in a decision or ruling, and the court shall issue a ruling on this. The corresponding provisions are also contained in Articles 253 of the Code of Administrative Procedure and in Article 243 of the Code of Economic Procedure. It is possible to apply to the court with an application for corrections regardless of whether the court decision has entered into legal force or not.
