From the supplier: Proposed amendments to Rule 26(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure would facilitate greater use of protective orders in discovery and make it harder to change those orders later in litigation. Many personal injury practitioners say they already encounter blanket requests for protective orders, which the defendant's economic power makes difficult to resist. This includes cases where the evidence concerns public health and other potential plaintiffs. The proposed changes are shown, and addresses given for comments.
