R. E. W. Construction Company v. District

This proceeding arises out of litigation commenced by the plaintiffs herein in the District Court of the Third Judicial District
against certain individuals and corporations, doing business under the name and style of Mountain Home Contractors. The district
court action is based on an alleged breach of contract for which the plaintiffs seek recovery of damages; the action also
sought to restrain the sale of certain real property in trust. Certain of the defendants in the lower court answered the complaint,
and interposed a cross-claim. After numerous motions, notices and other procedural steps taken by the respective parties, the defendants by notice took
the depositions of the individual plaintiffs, and demanded production of certain books of account, receipts, vouchers and
other records and correspondence involved with the building project, which was the subject of the contract in litigation.
At the time of the taking of the deposition, the plaintiffs failed to produce the demanded documents, and the defendants thereupon
moved for an order to compel the plaintiffs to present such documents.
