TITLE 9 CIVIL PRACTICE

Section 11. Civil Practice Act, 9-11-1 through 9-11-133.

ARTICLE 5 DEPOSITIONS AND DISCOVERY

9-11-29. Stipulations regarding discovery procedure.

Unless the court orders otherwise, the parties may, by written stipulation:

  1. Provide that depositions may be taken before any person, at any time or place, upon any notice, and in any manner and, when so taken, may be used like other depositions; and
  2. Modify the procedures provided by this chapter for other methods of discovery.

(Ga. L. 1966, p. 609, § 29; Ga. L. 1972, p. 510, § 2.)

U.S. Code.

- For provisions of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule 29, see 28 U.S.C.

JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Waiver of objection to videotape of deposition.

- Objection based on lack of court order allowing videotaping of deposition was waived since no objection to the videotaping was raised prior to trial. Even if the objection was timely made at trial, any error in the admission of the videotaped deposition was harmless since the videotaping was conducted in substantial compliance with required technical conditions and procedures. DuBois v. Ray, 177 Ga. App. 349, 339 S.E.2d 605 (1985).

Modification of discovery procedures.

- Trial court did not err in granting summary judgment to a mortgagee on the mortgagors' claims for wrongful eviction and trespass because the mortga- gors failed to adhere to O.C.G.A. § 9-11-36(a)(2) since the mortgagors never answered or objected to the mortgagees' requests for admission within the statutory time period, and thus, the requests were deemed admitted by the mortgagors; the mortgagor's reliance upon § 9-11-36(b) was misplaced under the circumstances because the parties modified the statutory discovery procedures by stipulation pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 9-11-29(2). Ikomoni v. Exec. Asset Mgmt., LLC, 309 Ga. App. 81, 709 S.E.2d 282 (2011).
