Request for production of documents.

shashidhar (Querist) 07 September 2014 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir/Madam,
In any civil case, when a plaintiff filed a civil case against defendant. The plaintiff suspects that the defendant has no genuine documents in his support, but admitted that he is genuine. When can a plaintiff or his lawyer request the defendant to produce the documents. Can the documents be requested before the case is framed or during the trial.

What is the procedure to request the documents?

I would be grateful for the response.

It is too early now.
The plaintiff will have to prove its own case.
After he discharges his onus of proof then only it shift to defendant.
If he has nothing to disprove the plaint case then you have nothing to worry.
