Is there any case law that supports the argument that there are too many Interrogatories?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Gallagher Holdings Ltd. v Unison Resources Inc., 2017 NSSC 248 (CanLII):

Justice Hood goes on, at para. 4, to say: I was also referred to a Decision of Justice Gruchy in Southwest Shore Development v. Ocean Produce where he made comments that the sheer number of Interrogatories could lead to a determination that they were oppressive. He also pointed out that they were to elicit basic facts and were not to be a substitute for oral discovery and that they should not require significant study to respond.
