JackB_Nymble Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Do "Requests For Admission" and "Request for Documents" fall under the general heading of "Interrogatory", and subsequently count toward the max. number of Interrogatories you are allowed to ask?I haven't the statute in front of me, but Ohio statute clearly states you can only ask a specific/set number of Interrogatories (I think it's 17). The Plaintiff has presented me with 17 Interrogatories... PLUS... 16 - Request for Docs. and 25 - Request for Admission. Is this common... is it allowed? If not, how do I call him on it?Always, with my thanks,JackB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobk4me Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 The limit on interrogatories in Ohio is 40, ORCP 33. But that's just for interrogatories. It's perfectly acceptable to have additional requests for admission and production of documents, as they have done. There's no violation there.And, there's nothing to prevent you from filing a voluminous discovery request on them, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackB_Nymble Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Many thanks! I just found ORCP 33 myself. Man oh man... that's not the answer I was hoping for (lol). I suppose a judge will think... lowly of me (as a Pro Se) were I to stop at 40, then recite Rule 33 for the remaining questions? lolI think I'll toss in a couple of "ad nauseum"s into the cut and pasted objections I'm cutting and pasting into the most ridiculous of the repetitive queries. Maybe even a "harass and intimidate" here and there, just to mix it up a bit.Thanks again nobk4me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
