- High Court
The court refused the broad particular discovery sought because the plaintiffs failed to show a sufficient basis to suppose the disputed documents were in the defendants' control and relevant under r 8.7; no general order for extensive discovery was justified. The court directed a confined, proportionate tailored discovery process with tight timelines and reserved costs until conclusion of discovery.
