No. 18553 § § § Submitted: February 19, 2003 Decided: March 7, 2003 Before WALSH, BERGER and HOLLAND, Justices. ORDER This 7th day of March 2003, upon careful consideration of the briefs submitted in this matter the Court concludes that the Court of Chancery s decision of September 20, 2002 setting the limits of discovery in this matter was an appropriate implementation of the appellee s entitlement to discovery established under this Court s decision in Saito v. McKesson, HBOC, Inc., 806 A.2d 113 (Del. 2002). To the extent that the Court of Chancery exercised its discretion in defining the scope of discovery in an on-going Section 220 proceeding in that court, we review that ruling under an abuse of discretion standard. Security First Corp. v. U. S. Die Casting & Dev. Co., 687 A.2d 563 (Del. 1997). Upon review of the record, we find no abuse of discretion. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Court of Chancery be, and the same hereby is, AFFIRMED. BY THE COURT: s/Joseph T. Walsh Justice
