Deposition Notice
Deposition Notice
A deposition notice is a legal document that informs a party or witness that their testimony will be taken under oath in a deposition. A deposition is a formal questioning of a witness outside of court, typically conducted by attorneys for both parties. The deposition notice must specify the date, time, and location of the deposition, as well as the name of the person to be deposed. It must be served on the witness and all parties to the case within a specified time frame before the deposition. The purpose of the deposition notice is to provide adequate notice and opportunity for all parties to attend and participate in the deposition. Depositions can be a valuable discovery tool, allowing attorneys to gather information and assess the credibility of witnesses before trial.
