The court dismissed the defendant's application for disclosure because the claim involves statutory tax assessments that should be determined under the Income Tax Act by the Special Commissioner and the assessments were final in absence of appeal; disclosure was not necessary for fair disposal and could amount to impermissible fishing; counterclaim was barred in government tax recovery proceedings; accordingly the disclosure order was refused and costs awarded to the plaintiff.
