(a) Marking and Disclosure. All exhibits and documents which are to be introduced in
evidence are to be marked for identification, which shall include the case number, and
exhibited to opposing counsel at least three (3) business days before submission of the
Pretrial Order.
(b) Withdrawal. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, all exhibits introduced in evidence
in the trial of the case shall be withdrawn at the close of trial and remain in the custody
of the party introducing the evidence. The Court may order the party introducing
exhibits which are bulky, heavy, firearms or controlled substances to retain custody of
such exhibits during the trial. Any such order shall provide for preservation of the
exhibit as justice may require.
(c) Photographs for Appeal. Exhibits, diagrams, charts and drawings may, under the
supervision of the Court, be photographed for use on appeal or otherwise.
(d) Electronic Media. Any electronic media (audio or video presentations) presented as
evidence must be submitted on a CD/DVD, or other applicable medium, for preservation
of the record.
(e) Withdrawal of Trial Exhibits Required. Exhibits introduced and received into
evidence at a trial or hearing shall be retained in the custody of the Court Clerk during
the pendency of the trial or hearing, unless otherwise ordered by the Court. At the
conclusion of the Court proceedings, the party introducing exhibits shall remove those
exhibits from the custody of the Court Clerk for storage until the final determination of
the case. If an appeal is taken, it shall be the responsibility of the attorneys to provide
any designated exhibits to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. If
the Court reserves ruling after a non-jury trial or other hearing in which exhibits have
been received into evidence, the attorneys shall produce the exhibits to the Court upon
request.
