Make sure you allow enough time for document production. The date of production should be at least 20 days from the date the summons was issued or 15 days from when the witness is served, whichever is later. If you are seeking employee or consumer records, this date should be at least 30 days away.
There is no limit to demands for production of documents (CCP2031. 010(a)). However, you must be reasonable. You cannot request so many as to be unduly burdensome and expensive, annoying, embarrassing, or oppressive.
You may object if the request would be "unwarranted oppression," also known as an unreasonable burden or expense to comply with. The judge will weigh the burden and expense against the relevance of the evidence, and the need for the evidence in the case.
