Summary
To format emails as exhibits, copy the email content into a Word document, ensure proper formatting, add page numbers, and convert to PDF. Attach exhibits to the main document with a face page. For referencing, label each exhibit, mention it in the main document, and include an index. If the complaint is filed without exhibits, submit them as supplemental evidence with a cover sheet and list of exhibits. Follow court guidelines for submission.Full Conversation
I filed a complaint but my exhibits were rejected for formatting with "Legal formatting required : (Cal. Rules of Court, rule *.* et seq.); All documents must be in proper legal format to be filed on their own. The Exhibits must be attached to the document they belong with or have a face page in proper legal format. If you need further assistance, you may reach out to the self-help center at the Central Justice Center or on the court's website under the Self-Help section." How do I format emails in pdf?
