What role does proportionality play in making an order under Rule 7-1(14)?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Edwards v. Ganzer, 2012 BCSC 138 (CanLII):

What is new to this discussion is the role that proportionality plays in making an order under Rule 7-1(14). Although not specifically provided for in Rule 7-1, it is only logical that the court should take into account the objects stated in Rule 1‑3 (2) when exercising its discretion with respect to compliance with the broader disclosure demand: see Kim v. Lin, 2010 BCSC 1386 at para. 29. Indeed, those objectives have been considered by the court in the decisions already cited.
