The plaintiffs' discovery application was dismissed because the majority of requested documents were not within the second defendant's power or control and the sole remaining document (the affidavit of assets and liabilities) was protected by privilege under s56(2) of the Evidence Act 2006; costs were awarded against the plaintiffs on a 2B basis and the defendants' discovery application was allowed by consent with costs for filing the application payable by the plaintiffs.
