Norwich Pharmacal relief was refused: where proceedings are pending, the identity of the alleged wrongdoer is known and evidence can be compelled by subpoena, the exceptional Norwich Pharmacal remedy does not apply and discovery against an alleged innocent participant is not ordered; discovery cannot be used as a prospective fishing expedition to see if a cause of action exists against the respondent.
