Maryland Discovery Problems & Solutions
Maryland Discovery Problems & Solutions is a new book co-authored by Chief Magistrate Judge Paul W. Grimm, Charles Fax (of Rifkin, Livingston, Levitan & Silver) and yours truly. We and others offered an unusual seminar based on the book at the Maryland State Bar Association's annual meeting in Ocean City last week. The Daily Record ran this preview of the event.
If you think you know discovery rules inside and out, note Judge Grimm's comment in the article:
Issues Grimm said he sees all too frequently include “non-particularized or generalized boilerplate objections” to discovery requests, which give the judge little insight when ruling on the subsequent motion to compel; lawyers stating facts in motions without supporting them with a citation to any affidavit or document; and lawyers who fail to realize that litigation proceeds in an “adversarial system but in discovery you have to cooperate” and compromise.
For those who want to brush up on MD discovery rules, you're not too late for two upcoming MICPEL programs on the same topic, offered on June 17 and July 16. Details available here.
