Q: Defendant filed a motion to compel discovery based on his request not when discovery is due.
Defendant adds his own insertion and interpretation when he is in charge of sending notice. This is confusing. The time that could be spent preparing discovery now has to be wasted on setting the matters right and responding to his complaint.
A:

A: Much more information is needed to answer this question. Unless discovery responses are late, a motion to compel would not be appropriate. I am confused by the remainder of the information you provided. Seeing a lawyer in person would be helpful, if you do not already have one.
