There is an interesting case of DICKINSON v RUSHMER, Chancery Division, Rimer J, December 21, 2001
(available on www.telegraph.co.uk law reports)
"As soon as it had become clear that the claimant had intended to support his case by reference to the documents which he was not prepared to disclose to the defendant, the costs judge should have considered if that course was consistent with the most basic principle of natural justice, namely, the right to know the other side's case and what was being relied on to prove it."
Not a DP case, but an interesting general one on disclosure of, even privileged, information.
