Editor's Notes

  • Formal Title: Plaintiffs' First Interrogatories, Request for Production of Documents, and Notice to Produce at Trial to Defendant The ReDistribution Alternative, Inc.
  • The first sentence under "A. General" seems ungrammatical; is it lawyerese, or a missing/extra word somewhere? If you take out the "and" after "9-11-33, ", it makes more sense.
