Common confusion points
Confusing 'Admit' with 'Consent': Admitting means agreeing; consent might refer to an agreement between parties outside the document itself.
Not knowing whether to list documents by title or by exhibit number. (List both if possible).
Believing that filing it automatically means the other side agrees—they must still acknowledge receipt.
Using this form when you only want to admit *some* of the documents, not all.
