The plaintiff brought a motion arising from refusals during examinations for discovery in a commercial dispute alleging that the defendants appropriated the plaintiff’s property and profits.
The court addressed several undertakings and refusals from the examinations of individual defendants and ordered that certain refused questions be answered.
It further ordered the corporate defendant to produce financial statements from 2010 onward, finding them relevant to the plaintiff’s disgorgement claim.
The defendants had agreed to answer most refusals but maintained opposition to the production request.
The court ordered production and awarded fixed costs for the refusal.
