particular documents definition
particular documents means individual documents separately described; a compendious description of several documents (e.g. ‘monthly bank statements for August to December’) may be used provided that the exact document in each case is clearly indicated. (2) A second test of ‘particular documents’ is that they must be actual documents shown by evidence to exist or to have existed. Conjectural documents which may or may not exist, or have existed, do not satisfy this test (per Lord Fraser at 720–722). On the other hand, documents to be produced under letters rogatory need not be ancillary to the oral evidence of witnesses (Rio Tinto Zinc Corp v Westinghouse Electric Corp [1978] A.C. 547) [(Exhibit 64)].
