Under court rules, all filings are one document. In the computer world, however, documents tend to be uploaded separately, which unfortunately creates too many docket entries and is confusing. Therefore, you will find two fields on CFX to which to upload documents. The first field is for the "lead" document. This is to be used for the motion or lead opposition document. The second field is for the points and authorities, exhibits, certificate of service and proposed order. You may combine the documents into one and file it as such in the first field if it is under 25 pages. Otherwise, the lead document should be in the first field and the remainder in the second field. You may combine into one document those uploaded to the second field or upload them separately in the second field and they will be combined in the filing process. The file-stamped front page will be on the lead document in the first field. It is helpful if you list all documents filed with the lead submission in the certificate of service. Alternatively, you may list the documents that are included in the total filing as a table of contents or in the body of the lead document.
