FAQ
Use a Special Interrogatory (sometimes called a Specially Prepared Interrogatory) if you want to write the questions yourself. You use this if you want to ask questions that are specific to your case and are not included on the Form Interrogatory form. A Special Interrogatory doesn't use a specific court form.
Interrogatories allow the parties to ask who, what, when, where and why questions, making them a good method for obtaining new information in a case. There are two types of interrogatories: form interrogatories and special interrogatories.
There are two types of Interrogatories: Uniform and Non-Uniform. The Uniform Interrogatories are in court-approved form, for general use in any case. Questions specific to your case, and outside the scope of the standard form, are Non-Uniform Interrogatories.
Interrogatories may, without leave of court, be served upon the plaintiff after filing of the complaint and upon any other party with or after service of the summons and complaint upon that party.
Complete Your Responses to the Interrogatories You must respond to each request individually. You do not need to repeat the text of the question, but your responses must be in the same order as the requests, and each response should be labeled with the same number or letter as the request.
