FAQ
One of the most common methods of discovery is to take depositions. A deposition is an out-of-court statement given under oath by any person involved in the case. It is to be used at trial or in preparation for trial. It may be in the form of a written transcript, a videotape, or both.
How Does Discovery Work? There are four main types of discovery requests: (1) depositions; (2) interrogatories; (3) requests for admissions; and (4) requests for the production of documents. Depositions are formal witness interviews.
Discovery is how you gather the evidence you will need to prove your case as plaintiff, or defeat the plaintiff's case as a defendant. You use discovery to find out things like: What the other side plans to say about an issue in your case. What facts or witnesses support their side.
Undeniably, if you ignore a request for information, the other party will either ask again or pursue a court order that forces you to provide evidence. This request, a motion to compel, requires submitting a formal request to a judge and asking them to intervene and request information.
The definition of “discovery” in law is the exchange of legal information and known facts of a case.
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.
Discovery means you send the other side questions and requests for information or items (like documents) in writing. The other side must respond to your question or request in writing.
Discovery requests typically follow a common format that you can mirror. First, list instructions detailing the request for production. Be sure to mention Rule 34 and Rule 26(b), which outline the scope of the discovery request. It's also necessary to include a section with definitions.
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.
In a formal discovery, you formally ask for information and documents. You can also ask other people for information. For example, you may need documents from your spouse's employer. They also must respond.
