The court refused the defendant's application to try the two preliminary issues because the issues were not short or purely legal: they were fact-sensitive, legally elaborate and involved developing principles (Wrotham Park/account of profits). The court granted the plaintiff's application for specific discovery, finding the documents relevant and reasonably locatable, ordered discovery within 30 days, allowed the defendant to file the affirmation out of time (with costs) and made costs orders nisi in favour of the plaintiff.
