Committee Comments

A party seeking an admission of the correctness of a copy of an original should describe the document in the request and attach a copy of the document to the request.

A party seeking an admission of the genuineness of an original document should describe it in the request, attach a copy to the request, and furnish the original to the adversary for inspection at the time the request is served.
