Q: What can I do if I am pro se and the opposing party has an attorney but has not responded to by Consolidated discovery?
Personally dropped off my answers/responses to their consolidated discovery along with my request. They are trying to hold me in contempt for visitation but will not show me any evidence they have.
I am aware they received everything because of comments made from other side but still have not received any type of documents with answers for request to admissions and production along with interrogatories.
A: If you properly filed the discovery, and also filed the notice of discovery with the Court, then you should write them a letter and ask that they answer. If they don't respond within 10 days -- and you have both provided discovery and filed a notice of discovery -- you should file a motion to compel. The, if they still don't respond, you should file a motion for sanctions. You might consider hiring a lawyer.
