Lewis v. Deutsche Bank National Trust Company
(4:21-cv-02348)
District Court, S.D. Texas
JUN 20, 2021 | REPUBLISHED BY LIT: SEP 20, 2021
INITIAL DISCOVERY PROTOCOLS FOR RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE CASES
PART 1: INTRODUCTION
In cases involving claims relating to residential mortgage loan defaults or foreclosures, this court requires the parties to use these Initial Discovery Protocols. The purpose of these Initial Discovery Protocols is to require the exchange of the most relevant information and documents early in the case, to assist in framing the issues to be resolved and to plan for more efficient and targeted discovery.
These Initial Discovery Protocols supersede the parties’ obligations to make initial disclosures under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(1), but do not preclude a party from seeking additional discovery under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
These Initial Discovery Protocols apply only if a Borrower is a party to the case.
Texas Supreme Court Ruling Reinforces Jurisdiction is Always First
A claim for fees and sanctions under the TCPA can prevent an appeal from becoming moot, but only if a court has subject-matter jurisdiction.
