Food 4 Less Supermarkets, Inc. v. Superior Court

In Food 4 Less Supermarkets, Inc. v. Superior Court (1995) 40 Cal.App.4th 651, the court addressed a response to a request for production and inspection of documents. The court stated that if a written response to such a request contains both objections and "fact-specific responses" and is served within the statutory time period for responding but the objections are not verified, the lack of verification will not result in a waiver of the objections made in the response and such objections will be considered timely, whereas if the fact-specific responses are not verified then that portion of the response will be considered untimely. Further, said the court, if the unverified response contains no objections, the result would be that the response was untimely and there was a waiver of objections. (Id. at pp. 657-658.)
