<blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><tt>(ii) all other documents to which the party intends to refer at trial</tt></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote>
And all of this is automatic. The disclosure obligations described in these rules are triggered just because someone has started, or decided to defend, a family law court proceeding. They don't depend on someone making a requestor otherwise asking nicely.
As you 'll learn in the rest of this section, there are even more rules about discovery and disclosure that do require someone to make a request. They include rules that let a party ask someone questions under oath or affirmation outside the courthouse, rules that let a party require someone to answer questions in an affidavit, and rules that let a party get documents and other information from people who aren't even involved in the court proceeding! The discovery and disclosure is a critical part of the litigation process that the court takes very, very seriously.
