- High Court
The court held that prior noise complaint documents are potentially relevant and must be discovered insofar as they bear on the defendant's pleaded contribution defence because the defendant intends to argue that reasonable due diligence by the plaintiff may have brought such complaints to light; disclosure is required subject to agreement or judicial determination of an appropriate timeframe.
