Where a plaintiff has shown a prima facie wrong and cannot properly plead the case without inspecting a specific document, the court should exercise its discretion under Order 24 r7 to order disclosure of that document to enable the plaintiff to plead and pursue the substantive rights; the defendant's appeal against such a discovery order is dismissed.
