About Idaho Exhibit Requirements
Idaho has seven judicial districts, and the Idaho Supreme Court's iCourt site offers the File and Serve and Guide and File e-filing systems. IRCP Rule 16 lets the court consider the identification of exhibits and the pre-marking of exhibits at the pretrial conference, so check the court's orders for deadlines. Check the local rules of the district where your case is pending.

Idaho Exhibit FAQs
How do I e-file exhibits in Idaho courts?
Idaho uses iCourt as the statewide e-filing system for all district courts. A filer must be registered with the electronic filing system (iCourt File and Serve). Electronically filed documents must be text-searchable PDF files of no more than 50 MB each; larger documents must be split. Electronic filing uses the systems provided by the Idaho Supreme Court (File and Serve and Guide and File).
What are Idaho's exhibit exchange deadlines?
Idaho exhibit exchange dates are set by the court's order under IRCP Rule 16, not by a fixed statewide deadline. The court may order the parties to file a list of all trial exhibits, with the disclosure date set by the court. Check the court's orders for the consequences of missing an exhibit deadline.
What exhibit marking system does Idaho require?
Idaho's civil rules set no exhibit marking convention, so follow the case's scheduling order. Check each case's scheduling order for the exhibit marking convention. Check your pretrial order for when exhibits must be marked and exchanged.
Are there special exhibit requirements for Ada County courts?
Local rules are adopted by each judicial district (Ada County is in the Fourth Judicial District) and must be consistent with the Idaho Rules of Civil Procedure, so check the district's local rules in addition to statewide requirements.
Does Idaho require exhibit stipulations?
IRCP Rule 16 lists stipulations on the authenticity of exhibits as a matter the court may consider at the pretrial conference. Authenticity stipulations can reduce the need for foundation testimony at trial. Check your scheduling or pretrial order for any stipulation deadline.
