Does Plaintiff in a civil case have to prove the debt to a defendant before proceeding to motion to compel discovery?
No. As long as the complaint sets forth sufficient allegations of fact to support a finding that the debt is due and owing the case moves along to the point of discovery. The whole purpose of discovery, and therefore a motion to compel discovery when discovery is refused, is to ascertain the facts supporting the allegations that the debt is due and owing. Another point is that discovery is a process that takes place prior to the trial and the trial is where plaintiff proves its case. Therefore, a motion to compel discovery necessarily precedes proof of the debt.
