Unless the Court orders otherwise, exhibits must be managed as follows:
(a) Method of Designation. All exhibits and materials to be used during a
criminal trial must be marked for identification purposes with labels
obtained from the Clerk.
(1) Joint exhibits (JX) must be numbered using white labels;
(2) Plaintiff’s exhibits (PX) must be numbered using pink labels;
(3) Defendant’s exhibits (DX) must be numbered using blue labels;
(4) Third-party exhibits (TPX) must be numbered using green labels;
(5) If the proceeding involves multiple plaintiffs or multiple defendants,
the identification assigned to each exhibit must contain the individual
party’s surname or corporate name.
(b) Uniform Designation. Proposed exhibits must be uniformly identified
during all phases of the case. This rule applies to all proposed exhibits,
including exhibits appended to discovery requests or depositions and exhibits
to be used at trial.
(c) Disposition of Exhibits. The Clerk may direct counsel of record to retrieve
their exhibits from the Clerk’s custody by a specific date. The Clerk may
destroy any exhibits that remain unclaimed two weeks after counsel of record
has been directed to retrieve them.
(d) X-Rays, Hospital Records and Medical Reports. The Clerk may deliver x-
ray negatives, hospital records and medical reports to the witness through
whom the exhibit was introduced in evidence.
(e) Contraband. If not claimed within two (2) weeks of final disposition of a
case, the Clerk may deliver all contraband filed as exhibits to the appropriate
agency for disposition.
