FAQ
Interrogatories allow the parties to ask who, what, when, where and why questions, making them a good method for obtaining new information. There are two types of interrogatories: form interrogatories and special interrogatories. You may receive one or both types of interrogatories in your case.
“Interrogatory” is a legal word meaning “question.” The Form Interrogatories you received will list an Answering Party. Make sure that this is you. If it lists another party in your lawsuit as the answering or responding party, you do not need to respond to these requests. They are provided for your information.
Unless otherwise stipulated or ordered by the court, a party may serve on any other party no more than 40 written interrogatories, including all discrete subparts.
Interrogatories are written questions sent by one party to another, which the responding party must answer under penalty of perjury.
You have to respond to interrogatories in writing to the best of your ability. If you do not answer an interrogatory question, and then the other side learns that you did in fact know the answer, it could have a negative impact on your case at trial.
A Request for Production (also known as a Demand for Inspection) asks the other side to produce and allow copying or inspection and measuring of a document or thing.
After you complete your response, you'll need to share your responses with the opposing side. You follow a specific court process to do this called serving papers.

Rule 33 (a), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure , restricts to 25 (including all discrete subparts) the number of interrogatories a party may serve on any other party. Leave of court, which is not routinely given absent stipulation, is required to serve more than 25 interrogatories cumulatively.
