The California discovery rule stops the clock on the statute of limitations until the plaintiff either finds out about the cause of action or has a good reason to do so. This rule comes into play when the plaintiff didn't realize, and a reasonable person wouldn't have realized, that they were harmed.
An attorney and unrepresented party must promptly notify the court in writing of any change in that person's address, e-mail address, and phone number for purposes of receiving service and communications from the court and other parties.
A party may ask interrogatories only of another party. Generally, a party has 28 days to respond to interrogatories, but if the interrogatories were served by U.S. mail they have 7 extra days to respond. URCP 6(c).
A party must make disclosures and respond to discovery requests based on the information then known or reasonably available to the party. If a party learns that a disclosure or discovery response is incomplete or incorrect in some important way, the party must timely provide the additional or correct information.
If you are a defendant in a case, you have to raise enough doubt about the strength of the plaintiff's case to make the judge (or jury) decide your side is stronger. 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.
The most common discovery techniques include: Depositions. In a deposition, one party or that party's lawyer conducts face-to-face questioning of the other party or a witness to the dispute. The person being questioned (the "deponent") must answer under oath, and the answers are recorded for later use at trial.
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.
Write out each fact you wish the other party to admit is true. When writing these facts, be as clear and concise as possible. Each request must be for a single fact; do not include multiple facts, compound questions, or subparts.
