Reply. Claimants refer to and incorporate by reference as if fully set forth herein their responses to Respondent’s General Objections Nos. 1-3 and their response to Request No. 1 above. In addition, Respondent’s objections are without merit and should be overruled for the following reasons: First, Xxxxxxxxx’ request is relevant to this case as documents and communications relating to Judge Xxxxxxx’x promotion are directly related to Claimants’ claim that he was promoted for his role in Pemex’s collusion with the Bondholders to take over the Rigs, through the issuance of orders permitting the seizure of Oro Negro’s assets and the takeover of the Rigs. See SOC ¶¶ 247-57, 265. Respondent’s assertion that Judge Xxxxxxx is impartial and independent judge is self-serving. Claimants have provided strong reasons to believe that Judge Xxxxxxx was rewarded for issuing the Seizure and Take-Over rights contracts. Moreover, Respondent’s relevance objection is undetailed and fails to identify the basis for such assertion. Second, Xxxxxxxxx’ request is reasonable and specific, and certainly not a fishing expedition, because it asks for documents and communications relating to a specific incident—the promotion of Judge Xxxxxxx. See SOC ¶ 265. Moreover, Respondent’s objections as to burden and lack of specificity are undetailed and fail to identify the bases for such assertions. On these grounds, Claimants respectfully request that the Tribunal order Respondent to produce the requested documents.
Reply. Claimants refer to and incorporate by reference as if fully set forth herein their responses to Respondent’s General Objections Nos. 1-4 and 6 and their responses to Requests No. 1, 2, and 14 above. In addition, Respondent’s objections are without merit and should be overruled for the following reasons: First, contrary to Respondent’s suggestion, Claimants are not required to seek documents from a third party even if they know such documents exist. They are prohibited only from requesting documents that are are “in the possession, custody or control of the requesting Party,” which is not the case here. See IBA Rules Art. 3(3)(c)(i). Moreover, this Request seeks “internal or external government correspondence, memoranda, official resolutions, reports, and analyses,” which are not documents that Claimants would be able to obtain from a third party, as most such documents would be only in the possession, custody, or control of the Respondent. Finally, Respondent’s objection as to relevance is undetailed and fails to identify the reasons for such assertion. Second, Respondent has not explained how documents relating to Pemex’s contracts with Seamex are confidential commercial information that cannot be provided to Claimants, particularly since Oro Negro is no longer a competitor of Seamex as it is not in business. Furthermore, confidentiality itself is not a basis to refuse production under the IBA Rules and/or Procedural Order 3, ¶ 4 (i), but rather, allows for certain protection of the documents produced. Claimants would be willing to receive documents Respondent considers confidential under the terms of Procedural Order 3, including, if appropriate, as “Attorneys’ Eyes Only” information.Fourth, Respondent claims that these documents should not be produced because they concern confidential information. Confidentiality itself is not a basis to refuse production under the IBA Rules and/or Procedural Order 3, ¶ 4 (i), but rather, allows for certain protection of the documents produced. Claimants would be willing to receive documents Respondent considers confidential under the terms of Procedural Order 3, including, if appropriate, as “Attorneys’ Eyes Only” information. On these grounds, Claimants respectfully request that the Tribunal order Respondent to produce the requested documents.
