The court refused the defendant's application to resile from admissions because the defendant acted in bad faith and for tactical reasons (to avoid DNA testing and to retain the grant), the admissions demonstrated inconsistency with the defendant's asserted position and did not disclose a triable issue with reasonable prospects of success, and allowing withdrawal would cause injustice to the plaintiffs; accordingly the earlier order for judgment on admission stands.
