The court exercised its discretion under the Hadkinson principle and refused to permit the Defendants to be heard on their Discharge and Stay applications until they complied with the outstanding disclosure orders because the defendants had been in prolonged, contumacious breach without satisfactory excuse, disclosure was necessary to prevent an impediment to justice and there were no adequate alternative protections; a Hadkinson order was granted with a short compliance period.
