                                 RULE MAR 4.2
                                   DISCOVERY


    After the assignment of a case to the arbitrator, a party may demand a
specification of damages under RCW 4.28.360, may request from the arbitrator an
examination under CR 35, may request admissions from a party under CR 36, and
may take the deposition of another party, unless the arbitrator orders
otherwise. No additional discovery shall be allowed, except as the parties may
stipulate or as the arbitrator may order. The arbitrator will allow discovery
only when reasonably necessary. The conference requirements of CR 26(i) shall
not apply to motions to the arbitrator to allow additional discovery under this rule.
