In an ongoing appeal under the Farm Implements Act, the Tribunal ruled on discovery undertakings and refusals from both parties.
The Tribunal ordered the respondent manufacturer to answer questions regarding its interpretation of the legislation and contract to avoid trial by ambush, and to fulfill several specific undertakings related to market share, meeting notes, and communications.
The Tribunal also ordered the applicant dealer to produce other dealer agreements to provide context on its familiarity with warranty and performance terms, but declined to order answers to questions outside the parties' direct knowledge.
