FAQ
(b) Document Demand: As the name indicates, this is a written demand in which one party demands that the other produce certain documents for inspection and copying. (This device is also referred to as a notice of discovery and inspection). The demand must define the items sought with reasonable particularity.
Strict▪Timeline: The current statute does not require discovery to be complete until pretrial hearings or trial. Discovery reform, on the other hand, requires the prosecution to turn over all “discoverable” materials as soon as practicable, but no later than 15 days after arraignment.
The discovery reform law, which went into effect on January 1, 2020, put New York on par with 46 other states operating under an “open file discovery” system. Under the new law, prosecutors must turn over all materials “that relate to the subject matter of” the case within a specified time period.
Interrogatories are written questions to which written responses are required. They are technically a "discovery device" that is used to get more information about facts in a lawsuit. Bill of Particulars are written questions that are intended to amplify the factual and claims made in a complaint or answer.
“At the conclusion of other discovery and at least 30 days prior the discovery cut-off date,” parties may serve contention interrogatories (Comm'l Div. Rule 11-ad). Requests for admission are unlimited and can be served up to 20 days before trial; responses are due within 20 days (CPLR Section 3123a).
The rule acknowledges that victims cannot sue for damages they are unaware of, and it adjusts the legal timeline ingly. This rule, however, is not without its limits. New York law specifies certain conditions under which the discovery rule applies, and understanding these specifics is crucial.
Discovery generally begins after the defendant files an answer, the parties hold a discovery planning conference, and the judge issues a scheduling order. The discovery process is designed to go forward between the parties with minimal court involvement.
The reform requires the prosecution to turn over all “discoverable” materials as soon as practicable, but no later than 20 days after arraignment if the defendant is held in pretrial detention, or 35 days after arraignment if the defendant is out of custody.
