The judge shall see that a record of any hearing is made, and shall order the trial clerk to forward a record of the hearing and a supplemental clerk’s record containing any orders permitting counsel to withdraw and appointing new counsel. Those records shall be filed with the clerk of this within 30 days of the date of this order
