Q: The opposing party in my family law case erased several questions from the interrogatories. Will there be consequences?
I am in a custody battle with my ex and we both had to answer interrogatories. I answered each question to the best of my ability and responded in a reasonable time frame. However it has taken my ex months to respond to the interrogatories and when I received his response, I saw he deleted several questions that I know he doesn’t want to answer. What can I do about this and doesn’t this show the court that he is unwilling to respect the process?
A: Only of you pursue the issue. No consequences unless you take action. You need to try to resolve issue on your own by asking that the answers be provided. If not, then ask court to make them answer with a motion to compel. Good luck.
