MEMORANDUM (CASE's Mot' ion to Compel of 8/28/85) l CASE's Motion to Compel, filed on August 28, 1985, appears to ha.ve l
been filed without regard to the Board's advice to avoid unnecessary technical disputes about discovery.I It appears that CASE preferred to make conspicuous charges without checking with Applicants or verifying the accuracy of the basis for their suspicions.2 We do not consider this particular filing to live up to the high standard of practice expected before this Commission.

t CASE's 8/28/85 Motion to Compel:
2 "grandstandino."3 Ad hominem attacks on opposing counsel are not to be tolerated and could result in fomal discipline by this Board.
We also find CASE's allegations concerning the attorney portion of i
Applicants' response to be baseless.
In light of the inadequacy of i
CASE's basis for suspicions, the affidavits filed by Applicants appear i
to be adequate without any further explanation of the scope of the 1
effort to respond.
