It may be documents, things, or testimony.
But, if you can’t get the evidence you need, you can’t win!
Your dishonest opponent will hide evidence. Count on it!
For “us good guys”, thankfully, the Rules of Procedure and Rules of Evidence FORCE JUDGES to command people to produce the evidence you need. Using Jurisdictionary® tactics the following 5 tools will win your case before trial.
#1 … Force your opponent to admit facts in writing using “Requests for Admissions”. This can be where he was on a certain date, that he signed a certain paper, that he’s been convicted of a felony, or that he beats his wife. So long as what you ask him to admit is relevant to the case, he must admit or deny. He cannot refuse. These are leading questions you ask before trial. Powerful stuff. Jurisdictionary® provides the necessary forms and tactics.
#2 … Force your opponent to answer questions using “Interrogatories”. If your questions seek information relevant to the case, he must answer. He cannot refuse. Ask your questions in writing, and your opponent must answer in writing, under oath, and before trial. Powerful stuff. Jurisdictionary® provides the necessary forms and tactics.
#3 … Force your opponent to produce documents and things using “Requests for Production”. Documents can be cancelled checks, bank records, deeds, anything conveying information. Things can be a broken ladder, computer hard drive, or bag of stale peanuts. If what you seek is relevant to the case, the judge must compel them to produce before trial. Powerful stuff. Jurisdictionary® provides the necessary forms and tactics.
#4 … Force your opponent (or anyone else) to appear at a court reporter office (or before a judge) to answer questions under oath using “Depositions”. Don’t wait till trial to make people answer your questions under oath. Jurisdictionary® provides the necessary forms and tactics, explaining why you should use the first 3 of these tools before scheduling depositions before trial.
#5 … Force judges to order people to do all sorts of things using “Subpoenas and Court Orders”. Force judges to order medical examinations, give you access to inspect private property, or command someone to stand on his head. This is your right as an American! So long as the order is reasonably calculated to lead to discovery of admissible evidence, the judge must order it to be done and do so before trial. Jurisdictionary® provides the necessary forms and tactics.
