(A) Size Limitations
Attachments and exhibits filed electronically must conform to the size limitations
set forth on the Central District of Illinois CM/ECF login page. A courtesy copy is
not required except as otherwise ordered by the presiding judge.
(B) Non-Trial Exhibits
A party may conventionally file exhibits that are not easily uploaded on CM/ECF
(e.g. blueprints, video, audio). If possible, however, a filing party should scan a
paper exhibit and file it electronically, in accordance with the size and scanning
limitations set forth in these Rules. A party electronically submitting evidentiary
materials to the Clerk’s Office must attach an index listing each item of evidence
then being filed and identifying the motion or pleading to which it relates.
(C) Trial Exhibits
Trial exhibits will not be scanned into the electronic record unless specifically
ordered by the judge presiding over the matter.

Committee Comments:

necessary. Revised section (B) to broaden the scope of exhibits that may be filed conventionally.
