Given the procedural history, the express agreement between the parties at the pre-trial review that there would be no time limit and that the issue could be raised at trial, and the substantial factual overlap between the authority issue and the substantive claim, the court exercised its discretion to allow the defendants to challenge the plaintiff's authority to sue at trial and refused the plaintiff's application to prohibit that challenge.
