Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Re: interogatories and request to produce documents

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney�s individualized advice for you. By reading the �Response� to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

RESPONSE: No, you do not automatically win the case. If the time frame has expired, then you need to draft another motion called a "Motion to Compel production of Documents and Answers to Interrogatories" stating that you served the Interrogatories and Request for production on ___ date. There has been no response. Wherefore, Defendant/Plaintiff____ moves to compel production of documents and answers to interrogatories. Then you need to call the court and ask them when you can set it for hearing and send out a notice of hearing advising the other side that your motion to compel will be heard on __ date and time. Good luck,
