Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Can it be argued the date verifications are provided for discovery responses served 2 months prior becomes the effective date the responses are served within the context of filing motion to compel further responses within 45 days of receiving the responses? Although objections within the hybrid responses be reserved, though unverified, and thereby setting the 45-day clock to compel, I wish to argue the subsequent service of the verifications, albeit 2-mths late, resets the clock to compel further responses as if those responses had just been served. Any insight or precedent, pro or con? Thank you.

You really need to hire a lawyer or do your own legal research if you are one. Your repetitive questions on this topic are becoming an abuse of the free service we provide.
No. I told you that objections don't have to be verified. All that they have done is let the air out of your tires on any motion to compel.
