The originating summons was dismissed because (1) the ex parte leave to commence committal related only to breaches existing at the time of the leave and the specific discovery order as first made did not bear a penal notice, so the procedural prerequisites for enforcement were not met and the committal proceedings were misconceived; and (2) independently, the alleged non‑compliance and affirmational inaccuracies were trivial, not shown to be dishonest or to cause serious prejudice, and committal would be oppressive and disproportionate; costs were awarded to defendants on indemnity basis.
