FAQ
Parties usually send their discovery requests and responses to the other party electronically, by email. But, parties may also send or respond to discovery requests by U.S. mail or a parcel service. Discovery requests and responses should not be sent to the Administrative Judge, except to support a motion.
Discovery is the process by which both sides exchange information, evidence, names of witnesses, and documents. For the plaintiff, this process helps in understanding what, if anything, could have been done to prevent the injury-producing event.
Steps Of The Discovery Process. There are four key actions in the discovery process which include interrogatories, request for documents, request for admissions, and depositions.
The privilege log, appendix and accompanying memorandum of law must be sufficient to establish a prima facie case to support assertion of each privilege or protection. No party may submit documents for the Court's in camera review, unless the Court issues a subsequent order requesting such submissions.
Discovery materials are filed only in limited circumstances, including if ordered by the Court, if necessary to the presentation or defense of a motion, or if required by law or rule.
States like Florida allow extra time for the discovery of medical malpractice before the statute of limitations starts ticking precisely to account for these instances. This is known as the “discovery rule.”
