Local Practice Notes
Exhibits with 50+ documents must be in tabbed, three-ring binders with exhibit list containing columns for "Offered," "Admitted," and "Refused." This traces to Lake County Rule 2-4.04. Treat this as a starting point rather than the final word -- call the assigned department to confirm before exhibit exchange.
