CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Bardon and Bardon*, heard before Stevenson J, the dispute concerned the production of documents and the potential for redaction of privileged legal advice. The parties involved were Bardon and Bardon.

The central legal issue before the court was whether certain documents, to be produced in compliance with prior orders, could have any narrative relating to privileged legal advice redacted.

Stevenson J made orders by way of notation that allowed for the redaction of privileged legal advice contained within documents produced pursuant to specific orders made on 12 July 2017. This indicates the court recognised the importance of protecting legally privileged communications during the discovery process.
