My question involves traffic court in the State of: Washington - Everett Municipal court
I was wondering if someone could point me to the thread or give me a definitive answer to the following situation:
I have submitted a discovery request to the prosecutors office and the clerk of the court on the 14th day prior to my hearing. With 4 days to the hearing date still have not received my materials. Per RULE IRLJ 3.1(which I don't quite understand). What will happen and what should I do?
"...If the prosecuting authority provides any portion of the discovery less than 7
days before the hearing, such untimely discovery shall be suppressed only upon
a showing of prejudice in the presentation of the defendant's case. If the
prosecuting authority, without reasonable excuse or justification, fails to
provide any portion of the discovery prior to the day of the hearing, the
portion of discovery not provided shall be suppressed. Neither party is
precluded from investigating the case, and neither party shall impede another
party's investigation. A request for discovery pursuant to this section shall
be filed on a separate pleading."
