What happens if the defendant does not provide responses to my discovery requests?
If the defendant does not provide responses to your discovery requests, you can file a motion to compel with the court. This motion asks the court to order the defendant to respond to your requests. Failure to comply with a court order to provide discovery can result in sanctions against the defendant, such as fines or dismissal of their case.
