FAQ
Having some key discovery questions and responses as exhibits may benefit your case, as you can simply refer to the exhibit during trial and the judge/jury can see that. Otherwise, you can show it to the witness and have him/her reiterate the same response, or impeach him/her if the response is different during trial.
Retain Your Response and Proof of Service You do not need to file your response or proof of service with the court. If the other party claims you did not respond, you may use these documents to defend yourself against a Motion to Compel.
Interrogatories are a form of discovery requiring a party to file written answers to questions submitted to that party.
(a) The interrogatories and the response thereto shall not be filed with the court. (b) The propounding party shall retain both the original of the interrogatories, with the original proof of service affixed to them, and the original of the sworn response until six months after final disposition of the action.
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.
Parties must immediately notify the Court if they are withdrawing any previously filed discovery motions. The pendency of a motion, such as a motion to dismiss, does not operate as a stay of discovery. Parties are reminded that there is no “order” in which discovery must occur.
Case is civil. In California court you have to include a verification with discovery responses.
Write out each fact you wish the other party to admit is true. When writing these facts, be as clear and concise as possible. Each request must be for a single fact; do not include multiple facts, compound questions, or subparts.
You must respond to the request and swear under oath that your response is true. Then you'll deliver your response to the other side's attorney (or to the other side, if they don't have an attorney).
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.
