Hamilton v. Ramos

26 Fla. L. Weekly D2502 (Fla. 4th DCA Oct. 17, 2001)

The court found that it was error to compel answers to deposition questions without having conducted an in camera hearing to determine whether the deposition questions elicited information protected by the work product doctrine. If a trial court determines that answers to deposition questions require disclosure of work product information, there must be a showing of need and an inability to obtain substantial equivalent of information.
