§ 14-14. Pretrial--Orders at Pretrial

 

The judicial authority may make any appropriate order at pretrial, including the issuance of a trial management order, and such order shall control the subsequent conduct of the case unless modified at the trial to prevent manifest injustice. If any party fails to abide by any such order the judicial authority may make such order as the ends of justice require, which may include the entry of a nonsuit or default against the offending party and an award to a complying party of reasonable attorney's fees.
