Bates Numbering

Bates Numbering is a very useful method of indexing legal documents

for easy identification and retrieval. You can apply a unique number to

one document or to a whole set of documents. You can also add

alphanumeric prefix or suffix which might include text such as a set

number, case number, firm name or date. The prefix and suffix can

make it easier to recognize the central subject matter of the

files. You can start the numbering at any point and, when processing

more than one document, continue the numbering across the

documents.
