Justice Kapoor requires a physical indexed trial-exhibit binder and directs parties to bring their own laptops, cables, and other trial equipment because the court provides no electronic support.

An indexed binder or notebook of trial exhibits shall also be submitted for the Court's use. Electronic Equivalents will not suffice for the Court. The Court provides no equipment or electronic support.

The official Guide to New York Evidence identifies court control over presentation of evidence as a statewide evidence topic; counsel should expect the assigned judge to control the mode and order of proof.

1.07. COURT CONTROL OVER PRESENTATION OF EVIDENCE

Taking photographs, films or videotapes, or audiotaping, broadcasting or telecasting, in a courthouse including any courtroom, office or hallway thereof, at any time or on any occasion, whether or not the court is in session, is forbidden, unless permission of the Chief Administrator of the Courts or a designee of the Chief Administrator is first obtained
