Personal Injury Exhibits in Arizona: FAQ
What is the expert disclosure deadline in Arizona personal injury cases?
Under ARCP 26.2, parties must disclose expert witnesses at least 45 days before trial. This includes the expert's identity, qualifications, opinions, and the basis for those opinions. Failure to comply can result in exclusion of expert testimony.
How do I file exhibits electronically in Maricopa County?
Maricopa County uses TurboCourt for electronic filing. Documents must be in PDF format with a 25 MB maximum file size. Create an account at turbocourt.com and follow the filing procedures for your specific case type.
What exhibit marking conventions does Arizona use?
Arizona typically uses numbers (1, 2, 3...) for plaintiff exhibits and letters (A, B, C...) for defendant exhibits. However, always verify with your specific court's requirements as local practices may vary.
Are there specific requirements for medical record exhibits in Arizona?
Medical records must be properly authenticated and HIPAA-compliant. Redact sensitive information like SSNs and unrelated patient data. Organize chronologically with Bates numbers for easy reference.
How does Arizona's comparative negligence affect exhibit preparation?
Arizona follows pure comparative negligence, meaning plaintiff recovery is reduced by their percentage of fault. Prepare exhibits that support or refute comparative negligence claims, including witness statements and accident reconstruction.
