Example

Motion to Strike Evidence Case No.: 20-14 Moving Party: [nation]A Certain Nation[/nation], Attorney for the Accused Disputed Exhibits: Exhibit 3: This Discord post is not admissible because it is inaccessible. This post was submitted as a link rather than a screenshot, and the Accused does not have access to this server to view it. Without the ability to access the evidence, the Accused's defense will be unfairly limited. Disputed Witnesses: [nation]Another Certain Nation[/nation]: This witness should not be permitted to testify. The Accuser indicated in the State Complaint that this witness would be testifying to the origins of the Executive Decree, but unfortunately they actually testified to their opinion on this case. While this may have been suitable as an advisory Amicus Curiae Brief, their opinionated statements are not "facts" and should not appear on the record as such. Otherwise, their testimony will be prejudicial to the Accused. We respectfully request that the Court expunge the improper testimony and strike the witness' name from the Exhibit and Witness List. I hereby affirm under penalty of perjury that the above information is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
