Sessoms v. Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.

Summary

The court vacated the discovery order because the trial court committed two legal errors under the Rules of Civil Procedure. First, the trial court improperly treated objections to Rule 30(b)(5) document requests as untimely when they were served within the rule's seven-day deadline. Second, it improperly waived objections to Rule 30(b)(6) deposition topics solely because the defendants had not obtained protective orders before the depositions.
