## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Arbitration & Alternative Dispute Resolution](https://ailawframework.com/practice/arbitration-and-alternative-dispute-resolution.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | List each request, the documents the file already holds that answer it, and the objection the other side has written, in the words of those papers. Do not grant or refuse a request. |
| What the lawyer must review | Production inside the arbitration is what the arbitration agreement and the procedural orders provide. 9 U.S.C. § 7 is the court-adjunct rule: the arbitrators, or a majority, may summon a person to attend and to bring books or papers, the summons is signed by the arbitrators or a majority and served in the manner of a subpoena, and the district court for the district where the arbitrators or a majority sit may compel attendance if the person refuses. That section is not a civil-procedure document request. Formal Opinion 512: the lawyer checks the schedule before it is sent to the tribunal. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: List each request, the documents the file already holds that answer it, and the objection the other side has written, in the words of those papers. Do not grant or refuse a request.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Do not label this schedule as a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 34 request. Rule 34 was not the rule opened for an arbitration.
- Institutional document-production rules were not opened. Use the clause and the procedural order in the file.
