1113 REHEARING GRANTED If a party to a discovery dispute claims to be indigent, before sending the dispute to a referee and apportioning the referee's fee, the court should consider various factors, including whether the party's costs are being advanced by the attorney, and the possibility that the dispute can be resolved by extra attention from the court.CitationDEBLASE v SUPERIOR COURT (Referee Fee) 40 CA4 1188 [See: Solorzano v Superior Court 18 CA4 603, T/AT 11/93; McDonald v Superior Court 22 CA4 364, T/AT 3/94]
