Colorado Supreme Court Upholds Litigant’s Right to Obtain Discovery

Antero Resources v. Strudley, 2015 CO 26

Colorado Supreme Court holds that Colorado’s Rules of Civil Procedure do not allow a trial court to issue a modified case management order, such as a Lone Pine order, that requires a plaintiff to present prima facie evidence in support of a claim before a plaintiff can exercise its full rights of discovery under the Colorado Rules.
