D.V.I. — Civil rule
Rule 33.1. Interrogatories
(a) Electronic Copy Required. Interrogatories shall be provided to the answering party in an electronic format that facilitates the insertion of the answers after each interrogatory or subsection thereof. The answering party shall provide the original verified copy of the interrogatories and responses to the requesting party.
(b) Counting of Interrogatories.
(1) An interrogatory that introduces a line of inquiry that is separate and distinct from the inquiry made by the portion of the interrogatory that precedes it is considered a separate interrogatory.
(2) An interrogatory seeking the personal identification information of several people will normally serve as a single interrogatory as long as the information sought can be ascertained from sources (even if multiple sources must be consulted) readily available to the responding party (such as the respondent's employment records or records related to the specific incident that is the subject of the litigation).
