If the document exceeds the page limit, then the party must certify compliance with the word-count limit. This limitation includes headings, footnotes and quotations, but excludes the caption, table of contents, table of cases and authorities, signature block, exhibits, and any certificates of counsel.

The certificate must state the number of words in the memorandum. Use of the suggested form of "Certificate of Compliance" displayed in the example below will be regarded as sufficient to meet the requirements of this rule.
