The application for discovery was dismissed because the agency status of R?hlig was disputed and central to the issues for trial; the court will not assume a third party is an agent for the purpose of ordering discovery and thus either the defendant must accept agency or the plaintiffs must join R?hlig or otherwise prove agency at trial.
