Description: This proposal from the Civil and Small Claims Advisory Committee would provide for a pilot project to apply new discovery provisions for unlimited civil cases. The pilot project would be optional for courts and voluntary for parties appearing in participating courts. The proposal is based on the recommendations of the Commission on the Future of California’s Court System to streamline the discovery process in order to lessen the cost of litigation and therefore provide greater access to justice for civil litigants.
