Memorandum: The information gathered by plaintiffs' attorney, consisting of statements made by an automobile mechanic who examined a car owned by one of the plaintiffs, is material prepared for litigation. However, since it can no longer be duplicated and withholding it would result in injustice or undue hardship to the defendant, the plaintiffs should be required to produce it. (CPLR 3101, subd. [d]; cf. Clarke v. First Presbyterian Church of East Aurora, 30 A.D.2d 763, Brunswick Corp. v. Aetna Cas. Sur. Co., 27 A.D.2d 182.)
