How have courts dealt with claims that defendants have failed to produce the bulk of records requested by a plaintiff?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Partridge v. Eastwood Ins. Servs. Inc., G044417 (Cal. App. 2011):

This is such a situation. As detailed above, defendants have provided reams of documents to plaintiff over the past several years in response to his multiple demands. Although plaintiff alleged in his petition that defendants had "failed to produce the bulk of the records" he requested, defendants provided evidence to the contrary, which the court plainly believed in limiting plaintiff's access. We do not reweigh evidence or determine the credibility of witnesses. (Reichardt v. Hoffman (1997) 52 Cal.App.4th 754, 766.)
