+.SH "NAME"
+CLOSE \- close a cursor
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+CLOSE { \fIname\fR | ALL }
+.fi
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBCLOSE\fR
+frees the resources associated with an open cursor\&. After the cursor is closed, no subsequent operations are allowed on it\&. A cursor should be closed when it is no longer needed\&.
+.PP
+Every non\-holdable open cursor is implicitly closed when a transaction is terminated by
+\fBCOMMIT\fR
+or
+\fBROLLBACK\fR\&. A holdable cursor is implicitly closed if the transaction that created it aborts via
+\fBROLLBACK\fR\&. If the creating transaction successfully commits, the holdable cursor remains open until an explicit
+\fBCLOSE\fR
+is executed, or the client disconnects\&.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+\fIname\fR
+.RS 4
+The name of an open cursor to close\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+ALL
+.RS 4
+Close all open cursors\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+PostgreSQL
+does not have an explicit
+\fBOPEN\fR
+cursor statement; a cursor is considered open when it is declared\&. Use the
+\fBDECLARE\fR
+statement to declare a cursor\&.
+.PP
+You can see all available cursors by querying the
+pg_cursors
+system view\&.
+.PP
+If a cursor is closed after a savepoint which is later rolled back, the
+\fBCLOSE\fR
+is not rolled back; that is, the cursor remains closed\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+Close the cursor
+liahona:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+CLOSE liahona;
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+\fBCLOSE\fR
+is fully conforming with the SQL standard\&.
+\fBCLOSE ALL\fR
+is a
+PostgreSQL
+extension\&.
