Which discovery method involves production of documents or things?

• A. Production of documents or things
• B. Depositions
• C. Interrogatories
• D. Admissions

Answer: (A)

The method being tested is the discovery tool used to obtain actual documents and tangible items from the other party. It involves serving a request for production of documents or things, so you can inspect, copy, or use those items in the case. This is about getting physical records and objects, not about taking sworn testimony, asking written questions, or obtaining admissions. Depositions are about oral, sworn testimony given outside the courtroom, with a court reporter recording everything. Interrogatories are written questions that must be answered in writing under oath. Admissions are requests for the other side to admit or deny certain facts or the genuineness of documents. Each of those serves a different purpose in gathering information, while the production of documents or things specifically targets producing the actual documents and tangible items.
