The court balanced the need for relevant disclosure against proportionality and manageability, exercising discretion to grant narrowed discovery orders as specified (time-limited and focused categories), to adjourn or refuse orders where requests were peripheral or oppressive, and to require proper affidavits as to non-existence of documents and undertakings (eg unredacted tables of contents) before further relief.
