WITHDRAWAL OF DOCUMENTS AND EXHIBITS

For pleadings and documents in paper records, the clerk shall not permit any pleading or document to be taken from the clerk's custody except as provided by Rule 2(d) or as ordered by the court. Exhibits may be withdrawn on the written approval of the court against a written receipt therefor, and the party shall file a copy in its place unless otherwise ordered. The parties in all civil actions shall withdraw all exhibits not attached to the pleadings, and all interrogatories, answers thereto, and depositions within 1 year after final judgment, unless otherwise ordered. If not so withdrawn, they shall be deemed abandoned and may be disposed of by the clerk. (Amended February 8, 1996, effective April 1, 1996; further amended April 23, 2012, effective June 18, 2012.)
