The originating summons under Order 24 r.7A was allowed because the intended proceedings had not yet commenced, the documents sought were relevant and necessary to determine a core dispute (whether the payment agreement for 58% of shares was varied), the Plaintiff was not in possession of the documents and had no other means to obtain them, and the application was not a mere fishing expedition; accordingly pre‑action discovery was justified and ordered.
