RE: John Doe v. John Poe
Dear ____:
On __________________, I served upon you, on behalf of your clients,
_____________with form interrogatories, special interrogatories, requests for production
of documents and requests for admission. To date no responses have been received.
I have granted you several extensions, the most recent being until ________________. I
have still not received any responses. As you are more than ___ days late on my most
previous extension I must insist that your clients provide me with their verified
responses, without objections.
Be advised that Code of Civil Procedure 2023.010(d) states that failing to respond to an
authorized method of discovery is an abuse of the discovery process. Further, as your
clients have failed to serve timely responses they have waived any right to objections,
pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure 2030.290 for the form and special interrogatories,
and Code of Civil Procedure 2031.300 for the requests for production of documents,
and Code of Civil Procedure 2033.280 for the requests for admission.
Accordingly, I request that your clients submit verified responses to my form and special
interrogatories, requests for production of documents, and requests for admission,
without objections, within 10 days from the date of this letter.
It is my sincere intention to settle this matter amicably without the need for judicial
intervention. However, as I am entitled to your clients verified discovery responses in the
event I do not receive your clients verified responses, without objections, within 10 days
from the date of this letter I will have no choice but to file motions to compel with the
Court and ask for attorney fees and sanctions for your clients failure to comply.
Very truly yours,
