sued by Sessoms & Rogers

Now that you have answered your summons you pretty much wait. Soon you will get from the court a date for a case management conference or pre-trial conference. It will most likely be from 3 or more months from now.

What you will get from the attorney will be interrogatories, request for production of documents and request for admissions.

discovery is not a motion, it is the current phase that the case is in. During the discovery phase, the things I mentioned above and anything else needed to defend the case from either side are brought forward. The point of the pre-trial conference is to see the readiness of the case and make sure everyone has what they need.

help, help, help, just got the stuff from their attorney...not sure how to answer the interrogatories, request for production of documents and request for admissions...who can help me with this? also, what should I be sending them?

first lawsuit and i'm defending myself.

I received a summons in March, and have a case management meeting in a month. I still have not received anything from plaintiff's attorney. Is that odd? I would like to send the plaintiff a request for discovery, etc. Should I do it now, or wait until after the case management meeting?
