have a C- or D- prefix. During the hearing, the parties must refer to exhibits using the Case

hearing, you must give the other party copies of all exhibits you submitted for use at the
hearing.
6. Physical Exhibits. The Courtroom Clerk will handle marking physical exhibits for Self-
Represented Litigants who opt out of Case Center. Attorneys who submit physical
exhibits must create a placeholder in case Center and include “Physical Exhibit” in the
name of the exhibit prior to submitting the physical exhibit(s) to the judge’s division.
The collection of physical exhibits must have a Physical Exhibit Case Coversheet that
includes the following: (1) the name of the party submitting the exhibit(s); (2) the case
number; (3) the date of hearing; and (4) the exhibit number(s) and description(s). In
addition, each individual exhibit must have an Exhibit Coversheet printed on color paper
indicating the physical exhibit’s exhibit number in Case Center. For Self Represented
Litigants, if any individual exhibit is a document that is longer than ten (10) pages, each
page of the exhibit should be numbered. Division staff will provide the exhibits to the
Courtroom Clerk for marking. The Courtroom Clerk will mark physical exhibit(s) with
the same exhibit number used in Case Center
