IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT TOENT TRIPPLE, Clerk By ANNA MEYER
THE STATE OF IDAHO, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF ADA DEPUTY

STATE OF IDAHO,

Ada County Case No. CR01-24-31665 Plaintiff,
V. ORDER RE: FRANK'S MOTION

BRYAN C. KOHBERGER,

Defendant.

Before the Court is Defendant's Motion for Frank's Hearing (Nov. 14, 2024) and Memorandum in Support of Motion for Frank's Hearing (Nov. 18, 2024). Accompanying the motion are 38 exhibits comprising over 2000 pages. Unfortunately, Defendant's memorandum largely fails to identify with particularity the relevant portions of the exhibits, instead referring simply to the exhibit number without identifying the precise pages at issue.¹ Thus, the Court is left with the unenviable task of sifting through pages and pages of largely irrelevant documents to ascertain what portion Defendant may be referring to. The " court is not required to search the record looking for evidence. " Venable v. Internet Auto Rent & Sales, Inc., 156 Idaho 574, 582, 329 P.3d 356, 364 (2014).

The Court will not do counsel's job and scour the exhibit to decide what portions defendant must be suggesting supports his assertion.

deadline to respond, the Court will allow Defendant until Tuesday, November 26, 2024 to submit the revised filings. this020nd ORDERED and DATED this day of November, 2024.
