- High Court
The Judge found there was a real possibility of a claim and that it was impracticable for Opes to properly formulate its claim without access to specified documents likely in Unlocked's control; accordingly a limited order under r 8.20 was necessary and granted, but narrowed to exclude documents relating to Unlocked's unrelated clients and subject to confidentiality protections and time limits (April 2017–June 2021).
