    Subdivision 1.    Jurisdiction.  Whenever it shall 
 appear to the court that the county court is without

 recorded and upon order of the court the court administrator 
 shall transmit to the court administrator of the district court 
 of the county within the county court district in which the case 
 arose a certified transcript of the record and all papers filed

 the district court as if it had there been commenced, and the 
 costs shall abide the event.  

    Subd. 2.    Cases not transferred.  If a case is not
