On Christmas Day (and my favorite holiday), I spent it writing up my request for discovery. I sent the Request for Documents and Interrogatories the next day. These are formal discovery tools used to gather evidence. The Request for Documents asks the opposing party to produce specific records, emails, or other materials related to the…
