Abstract: A system for filing and storing documents is provided. The system comprises a file cabinet consisting of at least one compartment having a plurality of individually slidable storage units. Each storage unit consists of a pocket for retaining a series of documents. When the storage unit is pulled outwardly from the housing of the file cabinet, the documents retained in the pocket remain neatly organized and readily accessible. Further, easy identification of the documents retained in the pockets of the storage units is achieved. Each storage unit includes a slanted wall on which the documents stored therein are supported, a retaining arm for maintaining the documents fixed in the pocket and an assembly which allows movement of the unit, all of which are designed to enhance and facilitate the filing of documents.
