    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA3968/1999

    The court held that interrogatories seeking the number of applications and selections of the plaintiff's image and questions on prior use/arrangements (items 1,2,4,5,12,13) are relevant and necessary to issues of goodwill and misrepresentation and therefore should not have been withdrawn; interrogatory 6 (discontinued use of credit cards) is irrelevant and withdrawn; interrogatory 7 (revenue/turnover) involves confidential information and disclosure is to be deferred/withdrawn until liability is established.
