Is the prosecution's failure to provide timely discovery of the proposed propensity evidence in a civil case?

Also problematic is the prosecution's failure to provide timely discovery of the proposed propensity evidence, in compliance with section 1054.7. That section requires that disclosures be made at least 30 days prior to trial unless good cause is shown. The purpose of the reciprocal discovery provisions is to promote ascertainment of truth by liberal discovery rules which allow parties to obtain information in order to prepare their cases and reduce the chance of surprise at trial. (Woods v. Superior Court (1994) 25 Cal.App.4th 178, 184.)
