Marked for Identification Law and Legal Definition
Marked for Identification is referred to those documents or objects presented during a trial before there has been testimony which confirms their authenticity and/or relevancy. Each document or object is given an exhibit identification letter or number and thus is marked for identification. The marked exhibits are actually introduced into evidence upon request of the lawyer offering the evidence and approval by the judge or by stipulation of both attorneys. Occasionally an exhibit marked for identification is rejected as evidence due to the judge agreeing with an opposing lawyer's objection such as for lack of relevancy or failure to show it is genuine or best evidence.
