LMMR 4.2
                            DISCOVERY


     In determining when additional discovery beyond that
directly authorized by MAR 4.2 is reasonably necessary, the
arbitrator shall balance the benefits of discovery against the
burdens and expenses.  The arbitrator shall consider the nature
and complexity of the case, the amount in controversy, values at
stake, the discovery that has already occurred, the burdens on
the party from whom discovery is sought, and the possibility of
unfair surprise which may result if discovery is restricted.
Authorized discovery shall be conducted in accordance with the
Civil Rules except that motions concerning discovery shall be
determined by the arbitrator.
