How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • noting that a party seeking to rely on the admissions bears the burden of showing prejudice
  • finding in a dispute over legal fees that “the first half of the test is clearly satisfied since the effect of upholding the admissions [acknowledging debt] would be to practically eliminate any presentation of the merits”
  • “[A]lthough plaintiff has filed a motion for summary judgment, he would not be unduly burdened by allowing the admissions to conform with the response filed January 19, 1989, and allowing plaintiff to refile his motion for summary judgment based on the actual facts of the case”
