The court refused the plaintiff's application for wide-ranging discovery on the basis that the defendants' state of knowledge was not an issue in the pleadings and so much of the requested material lacked probative value; the court granted limited discovery confined to four specified categories of documents but only in respect of the six letters of credit the subject of the actions, ordered discovery by list verified by affidavit and required an affirmation from a responsible officer, and ordered that the plaintiff pay 50% of the defendants' costs of the applications, taxed if not agreed.
