Minnesota Request for Entry Upon Land to Inspect, Appraise, etc.

Requests for the Production of Documents are a discovery device used by a party to enable the individual to learn the facts that are the basis for, or support, a pleading with which he or she has been served by the opposing party.These documents might also be evidence in a hearing or a trial.

A request for production is a discovery device used to gain access to documents, electronic data, and physical items held by an opposing party in a legal matter. The aim is to gain insight into any relevant evidence that the opposing party holds.

Requests for production may be used to inspect and copy documents or tangible items held by another party. Although these requests are most commonly used to obtain copies of documents, they can also be used to test, measure, photograph, etc., any type of physical evidence in the other party's possession or control.

Simply, an inspection demand is a list of categories of documents. Within each category the propounding family law attorney (attorney who sent the discovery request) describes the types of documents requested.It can contain a request for one document or it can contain a request for 80 categories of documents.

Update: The Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure are now in effect.At the same time, unlike the new limits to Rule 33 interrogatories and Rule 36 requests for admission, the amendments do not limit the number of Rule 34 requests for production.

The interrogatories shall not exceed 30, including all subparts, unless the court permits a larger number on motion and notice and for good cause.

Requests for admissions shall not exceed thirty requests, including all subparts. However, the court may permit a larger number upon a motion and if the movant establishes good cause.
