Derek Don Chappell, Petitioner, v. David Shinn, et al., Respondents.
DEATH PENALTY CASE
ORDER
HONORABLE STEVEN P. LOGAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Before the Court is Respondents' unopposed motion for leave to non-electronically file Exhibits 324 and 326, as they are DVD recordings. (Docs. 117 and 122.) The Court's Electronic Case Filing Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual lets parties seek leave to non-electronically file exhibits when the exhibits “are not convertible to electronic form,” such as “videotapes, maps, etc.” § II(N)(2). Because Exhibits 324 and 326 are DVD recordings, the Court will grant Respondents such leave.
Section II(N)(2)(a) and (b) sets forth the procedure if the Court grants leave:
a. The filing party must prepare an index and notice of filing in pleading format to be submitted with the exhibits or other documents. The caption of the index will state what document, if any, the exhibits are supporting. The actual exhibits must be tabbed and bound if appropriate.
b. The index and notice of filing must be electronically filed before the exhibits or other documents are delivered to the Clerk's Office. The index, notice of filing and exhibits or other documents must be served on the other parties by the filer.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED granting Respondents' Unopposed Motion for Leave to File Non-Electronic Exhibits (Doc. 122).
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, within seven days of this Order's filing date, Respondents must file Exhibits 324 and 326, in compliance with Section II(N)(2)(a) and (b) of the Manual, directly with the Clerk of the United States District Court, District of Arizona, Sandra Day O'Connor U.S. Courthouse, 401 West Washington Street, Phoenix, Arizona 85003. Because Chappell appears to have both exhibits (Doc. 122 at 1), Respondents need not serve them on him.
