How are Prosecution Exhibits marked?

• A. Alphabetically
• B. Numerically
• C. Roman Numerals
• D. Letters

Answer: (B)

Exhibits introduced by the prosecution are labeled with numbers to keep identification clear and consistent throughout the trial. A numeric system is simple and scalable: as new items are admitted, they can be added in order without reworking existing labels, and each item has a single, unambiguous reference in testimony, rulings, and the transcript. Numbers also avoid potential confusion that can come with letters, especially when many exhibits are in play or when subparts are needed (for example, 1, 2, 3, with possible sublabels like 1A, 1B if necessary). This uniform labeling helps the court, witnesses, and the record stay aligned when exhibits are cited during questioning or cross-examination and when the final record is reviewed.
