Actually Spanky, I'm a litigator and I go to court and shit, and I'm here to tell you that when a judge or another lawyer asks you for a cite, they're usually asking for a citation to a legal authority. When you want evidence, you don't usually ask for a "cite."
Usually it's the bad plaintiffs' lawyers who just make up new rules of English language like you do.
