Hawai’i Supreme Court asked to issue emergency writ opening secret Obama birth files

And this post is making me wonder if Obama’s team just didn’t screw up.

SNIP: *He is not required to respond to discovery until the court rules on the motion for protective order. *

RESPONSE: *Berg cites in post #32 section 10 that states Civil Procedure, Rule 36(a) mandates that the defense respond to the admission request regardless of the motion to stay discovery since that hasn’t been ruled on yet.*

I think this is what happened.

I tend to agree. If the court has not ruled on the protective order or motion to stay discovery, then the admissions/denials are due. The way to get around it is to request an order shortening time and a temporary order until the motion is adjudicated on its merits or file the response under seal dependent upon the court’s order. This is like playskool civil procedure. Did Obama’s legal team goof?
