If you get your motion of discovery you should know what evidence they are going to use. Right?

[@professorporter]

A motion to compel? Most often, a party files a motion to compel when they have requested materials (discovery) that they believe they are entitled to and the opposing side refuses to turn those materials over. This is NOT an evidentiary motion

@@professorporter well sir, while I’m not sure the exact name it’s called motion of discovery here and you get to look at whatever they are planning on using against you.

When are you supposed to bring up prejudicial objections?

[@professorporter]

You object when the questioning attorney asks a question that calls for improper information including a response that is UNFAIRLY prejudicial under Rule 403
