In both civil and criminal cases, the parties shall submit their exhibits no later than the date on which they file their initial briefs in this Court.

Exhibits that are not submitted electronically shall be contained collectively in an envelope which has been labeled with the number and style of the case; the name and address of the attorney or party submitting the exhibits to the Court; an index of the exhibits enclosed; and a statement signed by the submitting attorney or party certifying that the envelope in fact contains those documents listed in the index and certifying that the exhibits are in fact the original exhibits, or true and accurate copies thereof, submitted to the court or agency from which the appeal is taken.

When an exhibit is too large to be contained in an envelope, the exhibit shall be labeled with the number and style of the case and the name and address of the attorney submitting the exhibit. An index shall be filed which lists the separately submitted exhibits.

If a case necessitates the submission of both exhibits which may be submitted collectively and exhibits which must be submitted separately because of size, the index affixed to the envelope shall also state the existence and description of the separately submitted exhibits.

A separate index of all exhibits must be provided to be filed and placed in the electronic file.
