The summons for production was dismissed because the writ remained unserved so the court had no jurisdiction over the 7th Defendant for the cause or matter; the 7th Defendant failed to discharge the primary burden under the two-stage Order 24 analysis to show production was necessary for disposing fairly of the matter or for saving costs, and the request was premature and a likely fishing attempt and an improper attempt to circumvent Companies Court supervision of examinations.
