A: Suggestions:

1) Call the Judge's judicial assistant and ask them what the judge prefers. You can find their contact information by searching for the judge on google, which will usually have their office's contact info;

2) E-File the exhibits through Florida's E-filing Portal, you will need to register as a "Self-Represented Litigant." However, some times judges get upset if certain exhibits/evidence is e-filed. You may want to ask the Judge's judicial assistant about this.

You should, however, consult with and/or hire an attorney if you can.

A: And some judges want you to submit paper copies, including

one for the other party or the other party's attorney;

one for the judge;

one for the witness; and

have one for yourself.
