93.  (a) The plantiff has the option to serve case questionnaires
with the  complaint, using forms approved by the Judicial Council.
The questionnaires served shall include a completed copy of the
plaintiff's completed case questionnaire, and a blank copy of the
defendant's case questionnaire.
   (b) Any defendant upon whom a case questionnaire is served shall
serve a completed defendant's case questionnaire upon the requesting
plaintiff with the answer.
   (c) The case questionnaire shall be designed to elicit fundamental
information about each party's case, including names and addresses
of all witnesses with knowledge of any relevant facts, a list of all
documents relevant to the case, a statement of the nature and amount
of damages, and information covering insurance coverages, injuries
and treating physicians.  The Judicial Council shall design and
develop forms for case questionnaires.
   (d) Approved forms shall be made available by the clerk of the
court.
   (e) If a party on whom a case questionnaire has been served under
subdivision (a) or (b) fails to serve a timely or a complete response
to that questionnaire, the party serving the questionnaire may move
for an order compelling a response or a further response and for a
monetary sanction under Section 2023.  If a party then fails to obey
an order compelling a response or a further response, the court may
make those orders that are just, including the imposition of an issue
sanction, an evidence sanction, or a terminating sanction under
Section 2023.  In lieu of or in addition to that sanction, the court
may impose a monetary sanction under Section 2023.
