자주 묻는 질문
What belongs on a litigation discovery timeline?
Include pleadings, the scheduling conference and order, discovery periods, depositions, expert disclosures, motion deadlines and pretrial dates.
Should I use the rule deadlines or the court order?
Use the court's current scheduling order when one exists, because it controls the case-specific dates and may differ from a general rule.
Can a timeline show overlapping discovery?
Yes. A dated range can show a discovery period while point events mark depositions, disclosures and hearings inside it.
