Demonstrative Exhibit FAQ

What's the difference between demonstrative and substantive exhibits?

Demonstrative exhibits are created to illustrate testimony (charts, diagrams, timelines). Substantive exhibits are actual evidence in the case (contracts, photos, records).

Do demonstrative exhibits go to the jury?

It depends on the court's ruling. Some judges allow demonstratives in the jury room; others do not. The jury is typically instructed that demonstratives are illustrative only.

Must I disclose demonstrative exhibits before trial?

Yes, most courts require disclosure of demonstrative exhibits in the pretrial statement or at least before use. Check your local rules for specific requirements.
