331.4. Except where otherwise provided in the proceeding timetable, upon inscribing a case for proof and hearing, a party who intends to refer at the hearing to an exhibit in his or her possession other than an exhibit in support of a pleading must communicate the exhibit to all other parties. The other parties must do likewise within 30 days after the inscription, failing which any exhibit they may wish to refer to may be filed only with the authorization of the court.
In the case of an oral defence and where the hearing is not held at the time of presentation of the motion to institute proceedings, any exhibit to which the first paragraph applies must be communicated within the time limit set forth in the proceeding timetable or determined by the court, failing which the exhibit may be filed only with the authorization of the court.
