Legal Question in Family Law in California

Discovery after Final Judgment

My divorce was final in November 2004. My ex's attorney has requested a trial though I have nothing in writing from him as to what he wants to address at the trial. He did however send me form interrogatories to complete. I in turn asked him what his basis is for the form interrogatories. He did not reply until today to tell me that my 30 days to respond was up and he would file a motion to compel. He is asking for things like all my bank account information, three years of tax returns and all kinds of other personal information. Is this normal procedure after the divorce becomes final.

The process you describe is a normal discovery process. You need to contact an attorney and discuss whether there are grounds for obtaining a court order restricting the information that must be provided.
