Don’t say you weren’t warned. Six-and-a-half (count ’em, six-and-a-half) years ago, I predicted “be prepared for orders from other judges and STJs requiring courtesy copies of exhibits. And remember: thumbs up.” See my blogpost “Thumbs Up,” 2/24/20.

Judge Rose E. (“Cracklin'”) Jenkins tells the recalcitrant third-party recipient of a document subpoena in David J. Feingold, et al., Docket No. 19354-24, filed 9/11/26, that PDFs won’t cut it, so hand over documents in native format on a thumb drive, Order, at p. 4, footnote 2.

And Judge Jenkins reprises her lost document template, Order, at p. 2. Alert readers of this my blog will remember I blogged this useful form when it was issued in May. See my blogpost “The Missing Document,” 5/1/26. Properly tailored, the template could be useful in other contexts.

There’s also a primer on privilege logs, Order, at p. 5. I can’t think any of my ultrasophisticated, battle-hardened readers need this, but I note it for the record.
