Full Text of Rule 93.02
Amendment History
(Adopted September 10, 1982, effective October 1, 1982.)
Plain-English Summary
Rule 93.02 borrows the mechanics of interrogatory practice from Rule 33 and applies them to cases on the Economical Litigation Docket, with one change: the total number of interrogatories directed to any party cannot exceed twenty. Each of those interrogatories must also be limited to a single question, so a party cannot stretch the count by bundling several questions into one numbered interrogatory.
The result is a tighter discovery tool than a party might expect on a standard civil case. Anyone drafting interrogatories on an ELD case needs to keep the twenty-question ceiling and the one-question-per-interrogatory format in mind before serving them.
