Discovery — requests for production
FRCP 34
The rule
A party may request the production of documents, electronically stored information (ESI), and tangible things within the responding party's possession, custody, or control, or entry onto land for inspection. The responder must produce documents as they are kept in the usual course of business or organized by request, within 30 days.
In plain English
Rule 34 covers the paper (and ESI) side of discovery. Rule 45 subpoenas are the parallel device for non-parties. ESI form of production may be specified by the requester.
