V. Trials and Evidentiary Hearings
- Court Recorder. Please respect the Court Recorder's function. Speak clearly. Do not speak while someone else is speaking. New attorneys should give the Court Recorder their business card to ensure correct information in the record.
- Exhibits. For trials and evidentiary hearings, parties must strictly comply with L.B.R. 7016-1(d). At least one day prior to trial or evidentiary hearing, counsel must arrange with the Court Recorder Glynis Averytte, (313) 234-0038, to have all documentary exhibits marked and provide copies of all exhibits to opposing counsel. At the trial or evidentiary hearing, counsel must have three copies of all exhibits: an original, one for the witness, and one for the Judge, assuming opposing counsel has already received a copy.
- Transcripts. Counsel are responsible for promptly raising any issue concerning the accuracy of transcripts certified by the official Court Recorder. Counsel should contact the Court Recorder, Glynis Averytte, with material errors.
