The court found the defendants satisfied the discovery thresholds: the documents sought were documents, relevant to matters in question (administration and financial status of the deceased's estate) and were, to the extent available, in the plaintiff's possession, custody or power; production was necessary for the fair disposal of the case because joint executors are entitled to be apprised of estate affairs when one co-executor seeks to remove others; accordingly the discovery order was granted with a reasonable production period and costs.
