Submitting Trial Exhibits for Judge Wier

In this Court, electronic filing via the court's CM/ECF system is mandatory for attorneys. However, audio and video files cannot be filed using the court's CM/ECF system. Rather, in the event that a party has audio or video files to present to the Court, counsel or an unrepresented party shall typically submit physical copies of any audio or video files to the Court in an acceptable format, except as ordered, and in an acceptable medium as indicated below. Each such format and medium is currently commercially available to the public, is in common use, and is a format acceptable to the National Archives as a standard format across the federal sector:

Audio Files - The Court will accept only audio files that are in an uncompressed Waveform audio format (.wav), a Motion Pictures Expert Group format (.mp3), or an Audio-Video Interleave format (.avi).

Video Files - The Court will accept only video files that are in an Audio-Video Interleave format (.avi), a Motion Pictures Expert Group format (.mp4), or Windows Media Video file format (.wmv).

When directed by an order, instead of a physical copy, counsel shall provide an electronic copy of exhibits to the Court via the Court’s trial exhibit upload portal.
