Any party relying upon the expert report at trial will need to bring the original of any expert report to trial along with at least three copies.  (If the expert’s resume or curriculum vitae is not already attached to the report, copies of it will be required too). The original will be used for reference by the expert witness and the remaining copies will be distributed to the judge and all parties (or their counsel).  The expert report (and resume or curriculum) can be included in any joint book of documents at trial or submitted as a separate exhibit.
