General Guidance: Prior to Production in Court
Sections 21 and 22 Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (PACE) deal with police powers to retain exhibits and provide copies and photographs to the defence (Archbold 15-114/118). Note the restrictions on retention of exhibits where a photograph or copy would be sufficient (section 22(4) PACE). Secondary evidence in the form of photographs of exhibits can be admissible in evidence. If it becomes necessary to dispose of exhibits, e.g. because they are deteriorating, it is wise to give notice t...
General Guidance: After Production In Court
Once an exhibit is produced in court, or treated as being produced in accordance with section 5B(5) Magistrates Courts Act 1980 (Archbold 10-16), the court has a responsibility to preserve or retain it.

Photographs which are not used as part of the prosecution case may form part of the unused material which will be served on the defence...
Ordering Additional Photographs From The Police
In exceptional cases, sets of photographs in excess of the 3 free sets may be required. The Crown Prosecutor will endorse the file with the number of sets of photographs required and reasons for requiring photographs as opposed to photocopies of photographs. Unless the police are willing to supply extra sets of photographs free of charge, the Area making the request will be liable for the additional costs incurred. As the need for photographs, as opposed to photocopies, is likely to arise ver...
Bulk destruction and representative forensic drug testing

Prosecutors must...

Jun 21, 2006 · It’s commonplace for drafters to assume that unless they say so explicitly, schedules and exhibits attached to a contract don’t constitute part of that contract. Here’s an assortment of contract language reflecting this assumption: Schedule A constitutes a part of this agreement.
- Amendments. An amendment means making a change to a contract that already exists. Amendments do not replace the entire contract, just the sections that have been modified.
- Schedules. Schedules are sometimes referred to as appendices, but they are different. In contracts, schedules are included at the end of the document to incorporate information and terms that are part of the contract.
- Appendices. An appendix is a document attached to the end of a contract that contains detailed information, like a schedule. But, the difference is that appendices contain supplementary information that is not included in the contract.
- Exhibits. An exhibit is another type of document that can be attached to the end of a contract. Like an appendix, an exhibit is not part of the contract.
