The Court allowed only the late amendment to plead illegality of the Ting Agreements (false declarations re beneficial ownership/self-use) because it raised a serious issue that required investigation, was not inconsistent with previously pleaded facts, and would not cause undue delay or prejudice; all other proposed amendments (attack on title/sales, implied 3-year completion term, condition precedent to sale, forgery challenge) were refused for being inconsistent with completed Order for Sale, vague, imprecise, unnecessary or prejudicial.
