Fact Exhibits & Legal Authorities Accompanying the Written Pleadings 3. Parties will submit their fact exhibits and legal authorities by way of electronic communication or through the use of an agreed and secure platform only. 4. Parties will not usually print fact exhibits and legal authorities, but where it is necessary to do so, undertake to print only a minimal number (including, where feasible, relevant excerpts only) and, where doing so, to print double-sided and consider whether it is practicable to print in A5 format. 5. Parties will cooperate to ensure that each exhibit has a unique identifier that is used for all subsequent references to that document and without a further copy of the exhibit being attached.
