Interrogatories

Some cases are hard to prove because of evidentiary difficulties. In such circumstances it may be possible to ask the court for interrogatories to be administered so that appropriate admissions can be obtained from your opponent. The court will not order interrogatories in all cases and they are very hard to obtain in personal injury matters. As a rule of thumb the court will consider whether it is “necessary” to permit interrogatories. The application is made by notice of motion which needs to be supported by affidavit evidence.
