“The issue presented in this proceeding is not a Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 , 83 S.Ct. 1194 , 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963), type situation. The scope of the state’s duty to disclose under our discovery rules overlaps, yet differs from, the scope of the state’s duty to disclose under the doctrine established in Brady and its progeny.”
