CompFox AI Summary

The defendants sought reconsideration or removal of a prior order allowing broad discovery of their claims file. The Board dismissed the petition for reconsideration as the prior order was not final, but granted removal to admit specific exhibits. The Board affirmed the original order's allowance of discovery of the claims file, except for privileged material, and returned the case for further proceedings. A dissenting opinion argued the discovery was overly broad and not sufficiently relevant to justify the burden on the defendant.
