Answer to Question 1

Before computers, documents were processed by hand. Each document was individually reviewed, with the original stored in a separate file for safekeeping until its use at trial. Working copies were made for placement in the paper file. With thousands of documents, there would typically be a log of exhibits and documents, listing each item with a brief description. Where case management software is used, paper forms are used for the initial collection of data, which is then later keyed into the system. For example, a paper form may be used for client intake.
