Litigation Prompt 24: Discovery Application

Discovery Application — reusable Malaysian civil litigation AI prompt for post-pleadings / pre-trial.

This is a reusable litigation prompt from the Litigation AI Prompt Repository. It is intended for Malaysian civil litigation but can be adapted by changing the placeholders. Use the Universal Litigator Control Block first where source discipline, adversarial review and authority verification matter.

Prompt

Acting for `[PARTY]`, assess and draft the materials for an application for `[GENERAL / SPECIFIC / PRE-ACTION / NON-PARTY]` discovery concerning `[DOCUMENTS OR CATEGORIES]`.

For each document or category, identify:

- the pleaded issue to which it relates;
- why it is likely to exist or have existed;
- the person likely to control or possess it;
- relevance and necessity;
- whether the category is sufficiently specific;
- prior requests and responses;
- proportionality and burden;
- confidentiality or privilege concerns;
- the precise order sought.

Draft, as applicable: the request letter, Notice of Application prayers, supporting affidavit outline and submissions outline. Avoid fishing requests. Where possible, propose date ranges, custodians, search terms, inspection arrangements and redactions.
