Dongguk University v. Yale Universitygreen1 sentence2011P. 26 limits discovery if the Court determines that: "(i) the discovery sought is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative; (ii) . . . [or] (iii) the discovery is unduly burdensome or expensive, taking into account the needs of the case, the amount in controversy, the parties' resources, and the importance of the issues at stake in the litigation." A court is not required to undertake a detailed analysis of these criteria because they are "not to be treated as separate and discrete grounds for limiting discovery so much as indicia of proper use of discovery." 8 Wright Miller § 2008.1 at 152-53; | 1 | 1 |
