Rule 198.3. Effect of Admissions; Withdrawal or Amendment (Aug. 1998)

TEXT

Any admission made by a party under this rule may be used solely in the pending action and not in any other proceeding. A matter admitted under this rule is conclusively established as to the party making the admission unless the court permits the party to withdraw or amend the admission. The court may permit the party to withdraw or amend the admission if:

(a) the party shows good cause for the withdrawal or amendment; and

(b) the court finds that the parties relying upon the responses and deemed admissions will not be unduly prejudiced and that the presentation of the merits of the action will be sub served by permitting the party to amend or withdraw the admission.

Aug. 4, 1998, eff. Jan. 1, 1999.
