Civil Litigation · glossary
The disclosure model under which each side searches for documents likely to help or harm either side on each agreed issue. The search must be reasonable and proportionate, not a search of every file. The CCMC order chose it for all three issues. CCMC Order, paragraph 2 · Chapter 7 · see Issues for Disclosure
Explained in Chapter 7, Disclosure and Privilege, of Civil Litigation.
Model D makes each side search for documents that help or harm either side, but only on the three listed issues. The search must be reasonable and proportionate, so it need not find every last email. The narrower models would not do here. The key facts sit in records that only the other side holds, and under those models nobody has to search for them.Read Chapter 7, Disclosure and Privilege →
