How has the Court determined the scope of discovery under Rule 30.03 of the Rules of Civil Procedure?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Carthy v. Her Majesty in Right of Canada, 2019 ONSC 4851 (CanLII):

In determining this motion, I have applied the relevance test stated at both Rules 30.03 and 31.06 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, RRO 1990, Reg 194 and the principles of proportionality set out at Rule 29.2.03. I have further considered the scope of discovery as summarized by Justice Perell in Ontario v. Rothmans Inc., 2011 ONSC 2504 at para. 129.
