The court held the proposed amendments adequately pleaded the conspiracies with sufficient particulars under The Dias and related authorities, that the Amelia fraud allegation, though late, was permissible because defendants had long signalled suspicion, the cumulative similar-fact connection to the Starter justified the addition, no prejudice that could not be compensated by costs was shown, and the public interest in allowing meritorious defences favored permitting the amendments; accordingly leave to re-amend was granted.
