Discovery

Parties shall provide responses within 10 days of each discovery request. A party issuing a discovery request shall provide a copy of that request to all other parties at the time it is sent. Parties shall provide a copy of their discovery response to each party that makes a request for that specific response. Electronic copies of discovery requests and discovery responses are sufficient unless the receiving party requests a paper copy.

The parties shall attempt to resolve any discovery disputes with a good faith meet and confer, which may occur telephonically if that is more convenient than an in-person meeting. If that attempt does not resolve the dispute, the parties are to e-mail the assigned ALJ regarding the dispute. The assigned ALJ may schedule a conference call, ask for written motions, refer the discovery dispute to the Law and Motion ALJ, or take other steps as deemed appropriate. The assigned ALJ's e-mail address is cft@cpuc.ca.gov.
