SPEARS, Justice.

¶1ON MOTION FOR REHEARING

¶2Jampole expresses concern that the court’s opinion is unclear as to whether he is entitled to certain documents sought but for which mandamus does not lie. The documents are those relating to GMC’s efforts and plans to comply with proposed federal motor vehicle safety standards known as GSA 515/26 and FMVSS 301, and those relating to experimental, prototype, and pre-production crash testing. We view all of the requested documents as discoverable; however, we need not mandamus the trial court to order discovery of those items which have not been specifically denied.

¶3Jampole is entitled to these documents. We expect that the trial court will order full discovery in accordance with our opinion; therefore, we overrule Jampole’s motion for rehearing. GMC’s motion is likewise overruled.
