It is a mistake to try to litigate without an attorney only to use LawGuru as your guide. However, to answer your questions:

Q. I've sent copies of every thing to the court. Shoud the defendant do the same?

A. It depends on the document. Discovery demands and answer are generally not filed with the court.

Q. how do I answer the notice?

A. You don't answer a notice to take deposition. You appear in accordance with the notice.

I am not giving you legal advice because I do not know the specifics of your case. However generally speaking the defendant does not file their answer with the court. Generally speaking the plaintiff files the RJI. If the defendants have sent you notices for bills of particulars You must respond to them as soon as possible.
