FAQ
Many paralegals know the correct way to assign letters for exhibits. The first 26 exhibits are easy, EX-A through EX-Z, and the next exhibit is also usually correct, EX-AA, but it's after that where things can go awry. The 28th exhibit should be EX-AB (not EX-BB) followed by EX-AC, EX-AD, EX-AE, EX-AF and so on.
The exhibit list shall contain all exhibits that the parties intend to offer for admission into evidence. Those exhibits should be appropriately labeled as Plaintiff's or Defendant's exhibits, e.g., PX-1, DX-1. Any exhibits that have been produced by bates number must also include the bates number.
How to admit exhibits into evidence at a trial Show your exhibit to the other side and mark it. ... Have your witness identify your exhibits. ... Show the witness has first-hand knowledge of the exhibit. ... Ask the judge to admit the exhibit as evidence.
Include a typed notation within the body of the legal document where the exhibit should be referenced. Thereafter, assign the exhibit with an identifying number or letter. For instance, this notation can state either "See Exhibit A" or "See Exhibit 1".
Marking exhibits: Each exhibit should be marked with an exhibit sticker or label for identification. Typically, exhibits are sequentially numbered (Exhibit 1, Exhibit 2, etc.) or lettered (Exhibit A, Exhibit B, etc.).
The plaintiff's exhibits are traditionally numbered (?Exhibit 1?), while the defendant's exhibits are lettered (?Exhibit A?). Your court may want you to label your own exhibits as you introduce them or the court may prefer that the court clerk labels the exhibits instead.
Go to the ?References? tab in Word and select ?Insert Caption.? Select ?Exhibit? from the options under ?Label.? If Exhibit isn't an option, you can create a new label with the ?New Label? button. Click ?Numbering? to designate what type of numbering you want (i.e., A, B, C or 1, 2, 3).
