The court held that Norwich Pharmacal principles permit compelling a third party who innocently became involved to disclose the identity of the employee who converted confidential company documents; the availability of discovery in separate proceedings does not bar this relief because discovery rules do not justify or protect conversion of confidential material, and it was appropriate in the exercise of judicial discretion to order disclosure in this case.
