discovery

Answer 1

A. Preliminary Hearing is the answer to your question 

Answer 2

the correct answer is DEPOSITION

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a testimony under oath which is taken outside the courtroom. It implies writing for later use in the courtroom as an evidence or discovery purposes. It can be an examination before trial as well. Both parties involved in the procedure are represented by an attorney and can be questioned, and while this is happening a court reporter is recording everything that is being said.
