398.1. The party having examined witnesses under article 397 or 398 may file in the record the whole or only abstracts of the depositions taken. If he elects to file them, he must do so within the time and according to the conditions and modalities set down in the rules of practice, unless the court decides otherwise. He shall also, by notice served within the same time, indicate to the other parties what he has filed in the record.
However, on the motion of any other party, the court may order any abstract of the deposition which, in its opinion, cannot be dissociated from the abstracts already filed, to be added to the record.
