Introduction

The law and interpretation around the disclosure or discovery of documents has remained
largely unchanged. Judicial interpretation of the Rules has remained fairly consistent and
serves to entrench the accepted view on the interpretation and application of different sections.

This paper will largely serve to provide a basic practical overview of the main concepts
related to discovery in addition to providing relevant updates on the interpretation of the
Rules by the courts.
