[blindlaw] Labelliing Documents

[Russ Thomas]

I use a date, client, and description format to save files:
Example:
2012 11 21 (Marks) Appellant Opening Brief

If you use Microsoft word, you would create a folder in the name of the
client. In that folder I keep a correspondence, pleadings, documents and
drafts folder. 

When I save any entry, I use the same date, client and description format.

Once an item is finished, (ready for filing with a court or to be sent to a
client) the corresponding item is deleted from the drafts folder.

In the date part of the file name make sure you use a two digit number for
the month - July = 07. As you add to the folder, word will automatically
place each item in date order.

Hi all

What is the best way to label documents once you've printed them, so that
you are sure what each document is, if you have a lot of them?

I am thinking particularly of the preparation of books of authorities,
briefs etc.
