Rule 26(g) certification: The certification that the disclosure is complete and correct at the time of signature and consistent with the rules is made by

• A. The attorney or party
• B. The clerk
• C. The judge
• D. The witness

Answer: (A)

Rule 26(g) certification is the signer's assertion that the disclosed information is complete and correct at the time of signing and that it complies with the rules. The person who makes this certification must be the attorney of record or the party themselves if they are proceeding pro se. A clerk, judge, or witness does not certify the disclosures. This placement of responsibility ensures the attorney or party conducts a reasonable inquiry before signing, and it creates accountability: false or incomplete certifications can lead to sanctions under the rules.
