Rule 287 - Depositions, Discovery and Motions (a) No depositions shall be taken or interrogatories or other discovery proceeding or requests to admit be used prior to trial in small claims except by leave of court.
Presumably, Requests to Admit are subject to the “meet and confer” requirement for discovery disputes under Supreme Court Rule 201(k). This logically flows from the stated purpose of Rule 201(k), which is to encourage cooperation among opposing counsel to resolve issues before court intervention.
All dates set for the disclosure of witnesses, including rebuttal witnesses, and the completion of discovery shall be chosen to ensure that discovery will be completed not later than 60 days before the date on which the trial court reasonably anticipates that trial will commence, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
Sometimes, there are exceptions via a discovery rule, allowing for a delay to the statute of limitations to start the time tolling not on the date the incident occurred leading to injury but instead on the date of discovery of an injury or when damages were first reasonably discoverable, per 735 ILCS 5/13-214.3(b).
A party can only send 30 interrogatories. However, this number can be increased if the other party agrees or the court allows more. If there is more than one other party in the case, the requesting party must give copies to all other parties. A party who receives interrogatories has 28 days to answer or object.
Also, amended Rule 213(d) retains the requirement that “within 28 days after service of the interrogatories upon the party to whom they are directed, the party shall serve a sworn answer or an objection to each interrogatory, with proof of service upon all other parties entitled to notice.
The other party might not respond, or s/he could file a “motion to compel discovery.” A motion to compel discovery is a written request to the judge in which the party seeking discovery asks the judge to issue an order requiring that the other party turns over the requested documents by a certain date or face certain ...
Emergency Motions shall include an affidavit or verification stating facts that identify the nature of the sudden or unforeseen circumstances which give rise to the emergency and the reason why the matter should take precedence.
To change a court date, you must get a judge's permission. You ask the judge's permission by filing a motion. This motion asks the judge to reschedule a court date. If you are asking for a new court date, it is called a continuance.
In legal terms, a change in a hearing date to a date in the future is called a “continuance” of the hearing.
