For exhibits to motions/responses in federal court, do law clerks prefer (1) citations to doc numbers or (2) attach exhibits to motion, even if the docs have already been filed with the court.

1) courtesy paper copy if voluminous
2) if I will 100% look at it, reattach to motion
3) if i might want to look but it's not super important a reference is fine
4) be consistent in how you refer to things, calling them exhibits, attachments, and its helps to refer to them as like ECF 114-6, X email to Y, at 4.
5) if you are referring to something like a depo transcript please use the actual ecf pdf page number, not the depo page number because it is so confusing

Another point on voluminous courtesy copies - tab the exhibits please

A table of contents telling me what each exhibit is in a nutshell...priceless

Really appreciate your time and advice!

Doc numbers. More exhibits to a motion makes it more unwieldy. But it depends on the motion. MSJ? Exhibits. Reference to a complaint in a subsequent filing? docket number.

Also cite to ecf filing page numbers when possible! As opposed to document page numbers.

Many judges note in their chamber rules that they prefer hyperlinks to ECF documents. I think it’s pretty simple and makes it that much easier for the court to refer to documents.

Hyperlinking is a great practice tip. I screenshot important evidence in briefs for the same reason: make it easy for the Judge to follow your argument.

When in doubt attach and make it easy.
