The parties have made a stipulated request to extend the deadline to lodge chambers’ copies
of each party’s trial exhibits from February 13, 2015 to February 18, 2015. The request is based on
Defendants’ representation that it intends to lodge “tens of thousands of pages of exhibits” and
therefore needs additional time to deliver complete sets to chambers.
The parties’ requested extension is granted. However, the court makes the following
suggestion. Based on the court’s knowledge of the case, the court surmises that these exhibits may
be brewing logs, time records, or other voluminous business records. The court is concerned that the
presentation of tens of thousands of pages of exhibits to a jury will be time-consuming, confusing,
and inefficient. For this reason, the court suggests that the parties meet and confer to determine
whether any of these records could be better presented in a summary form. See Fed. R. Evid. 1006.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
