Disclosure and inspection of documents – Production of documents. In the course of proceedings between the claimant and defendant (RBS), RBS sought an order that it was not required to permit inspection of an attachment to the deferred prosecution agreement between it and the United States Department of Justice. The Chancery Division held that, in the circumstances, RBS would be ordered to produce the document for inspection in the present action. The order would take effect four weeks from the date on which it was made and a special further order would be made, providing that, until further order, neither party might refer to the document in open court without permission obtained in advance.
