FAQ
Generally speaking, when a party does not respond to discovery, one may file a motion to compel. It may also be important to check with the party to see why no response was provided. Typically the court will decide all discovery disputes.
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.
If the parties are having a dispute, either party can file a motion with the court asking the judge to order the other side to respond to discovery requests or punish the other side for failing to respond to discovery requests or for making unreasonable discovery requests.
In the United States, discovery is mostly performed by the litigating parties themselves, with relatively minimal judicial oversight. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure guide discovery in the U.S. federal court system.
Failure to comply with discovery obligations may result in sanctions. Sanctions are actions taken by the Administrative Judge to penalize a party that fails to comply with their orders or other legal obligations.
In certain cases, you might be able to write a letter to the other side and request the documents that you need. However, in more formal cases, you will likely have to draft more formal discovery demands. There are usually forms available for this in local law libraries, from the court clerk's office, or online.
Discovery materials are, for the most part, understood to be public so long as filed with a court; otherwise, they are not necessarily accessible.

If you or the other side want to ask the court to do something in a case, you must ask in written court papers called a Motion or an Order to Show Cause. Each party is allowed to take up to ten depositions without the judge's permission.Civ. R. 26(B)(3)(a) now requires civil litigants to make certain disclosures early in a case without waiting for a specific discovery request. Pursuant to Civil Rule 37, before filing any discovery motions, counsel shall make reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute. Your legal argument should be brief and to the point. Note that discovery in a habeas proceeding is only available for a reason the court feels is adequate ("good cause") and is not automatic.

If the other party does not consent, the party requesting a continuance must show good cause.
