Forrester v British Railways Board: CA 8 Apr 1996

Where a request for the discovery of documents was too wide, it should be refused by the court, but the court also had the discretion to order an alternative arrangement. In this case the discovery applied for was far too wide, and the court ordered an expert’s report which could then be used to ensure appropriate discovery was provided.
