Discovery refers to the process of getting information from another party (a Plaintiff or a Defendant) before trial. The Maryland Rules require that you respond and work with the opposing party to meet all discovery deadlines.Send a notice to the court that you have sent out a request for discovery (propounded discovery) or that you have responded to the discovery request. Each party is under a continuing obligation to produce discoverable material and information to the other side. Discovery may be accomplished in any manner mutually agreeable to the parties. The parties shall file with the court a statement of their agreement. This request can be used to ask witnesses to present testimony or to provide documents, video surveillance, and other similar things for the court proceedings. When you reach the Modify Docket text screen, type in Discovery and any additional information you want to include in the docket entry. Most Maryland court forms and brochures are available in this index. Responses to discovery requests shall be made within 15 days of service of the request or not less than 10 days prior to trial, whichever is earlier.
