Dunn-Edwards objects to this request on the grounds that it is

the workers’ compensation policy and no other policy is relevant or admissible
and therefore this request is not calculated to lead to the discovery of relevant
admissible evidence. Further, under Labor Code section 3600, et seq., Dunn
Edwards cannot be made a party to this action due to the fact that the asking
party’s exclusive remedy against Dunn-Edwards was workers’ compensation.
