The court refused broad orders for further and better discovery where the plaintiff failed to provide evidence or reasonable grounds to believe the defendants possessed the requested documents or where privilege applied; limited relief was granted obliging the defendants to search for and disclose additional Dr Ingram QC opinions and related correspondence and to obtain available sales records from Longacre, while declining orders for pre-sales orders, third‑party correspondence, access to personal computers/hard-drives, and most items sought in the defendants' cross-application.
