A quick definition of disclosure:

Disclosure: In court, when people are arguing about something, they have to share information with each other. This is called disclosure. There are three times when they have to share information. First, they have to share basic information about the people who will be talking in court, copies of papers that help their argument, and how much money they want. Later, they have to share information about the experts they will use to help their argument. Finally, right before they go to court, they have to share what they will use to prove their argument. This is so everyone knows what to expect in court.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Disclosure is a legal requirement for parties involved in a federal court case to share important information with each other. This information includes evidence that would be used during the trial. Disclosure happens in three stages.

  • At the beginning of the case, each party must share basic information about witnesses, copies of documents supporting their claims, and information about any insurance agreements that might cover part or all of a judgment against them.
  • Later in the pre-trial process, each party must share the identity and qualifications of their expert witnesses, along with a summary of their reasoning and conclusions regarding the case.
  • Finally, shortly before the trial, each party must disclose what evidence they plan to use at trial.

These examples illustrate how disclosure works in a federal court case. It ensures that both parties have access to important information and evidence, which helps to ensure a fair trial.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
