Objections and Responses to Notice of Rule 30 (B)(5) Deposition
(OH)

Summary

This objections and responses to notice of a Rule 30(B)(5) deposition template may be used by counsel for a corporate, government, or other similar entity in civil litigation in an Ohio state court case. This template contains practical guidance, drafting notes, and alternate and optional clauses. You may object to an Ohio Civ. R. 30(B)(5) notice of deposition if it does not meet the applicable requirements, such as if it fails to properly identify the entity to be deposed or does not define the topics for the deposition with reasonable particularity. This template assumes that the defendant is the responding party, but the plaintiff may also be the subject of a 30(B)(5) deposition. For more on defending Rule 30(B)(5) depositions, see Depositions: Preparing for and Defending the Deposition of an Entity (OH).
