Section 34.11

A deposition ordered under rule 34.8 may be given in evidence at a hearing unless the court orders otherwise. A party intending to put in evidence a deposition at a hearing must serve notice of his intention to do so on every other party. He must serve the notice at least 21 days before the day fixed for the hearing. The court may require a deponent to attend the hearing and give evidence orally. Where a deposition is given in evidence at trial, it shall be treated as if it were a witness statement for the purposes of rule 32.13 (availability of witness statements for inspection).
