RE0UE8T FOR PRODUCTION
REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION NO_,_l:
Produce copies of the minutes of any meetings of the board of directors of Defendant at which the following topics were
discussed:
(a) (b) (c)
(d)
(
RESPONSE:
Asbestos-containing products; Asbestosis; other asbestos-related diseases, including but not limited to lung cancer, mesothelioma, pleural plagues; and dust studies that measure asbestos dust and fibers.
See Preliminary Statement and General Objections, which are
incorporated herein as if fully rewritten. Further objecting, Dana
limits its response to documents created or relating to a time
after Smith & Kanzler Company was incorporated and prior to or
contemporaneous with the alleged installation of SprayCraft but in
no event later than February 18, 1969, when Dana sold the stock of
Smith & Kanzler Company. Further objecting, the request is overly
broad given the parameters and subject matter of this case.
Further objecting, the information sought is neither relevant to
the subject matter of the pending action nor reasonably calculated
to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence as it relates to
Dana. Subject to and without waiving objections, in February,
1969, less them eighteen months after acquiring the stock of Smith
& Kanzler Company, Dana sold the stock of Smith & Kanzler Company
to Philip Carey Corporation.
At that time Smith & Kanzler
Company's business records either remained with Smith & Kanzler
Company or were passed to Philip Carey Corporation. Because Dana
merely owned the stock of Smith & Kanzler Company for less than
eighteen months and because Dana does not have possession of Smith
6 Kanzler Company's records, Dana does not have custody and control
of documents, if any, sought by this request that were generated
during or relate to the relevant time period described above.
REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION NO. 2:
Produce copies of the minutes of any safety meetings or any meetings at any plant or facility of Defendant where the following topics were discussed:
(a) Asbestos-containing products; (b) Asbestosis; (c) other asbestos-related diseases, including but not
limited to lung cancer, mesothelioma, pleural plagues; and (d) dust studies that measure asbestos dust and fibers.
