The court held that although it had jurisdiction under r 8.17 and r 8.19 to order particular discovery, the documents sought (notably the 2005 loan file) were not sufficiently relevant to the issues of reliance and causation in 2008; the 2007 file bore only marginal relevance and the core facts could be agreed; interrogatories were not necessary under r 8.38; accordingly the applications for additional discovery and for answers to interrogatories were dismissed with limited leave reserved to obtain agreed facts relevant to trial.
