The Court allowed the appeal in part: it set aside the judge's orders allowing substitution of the plaintiff's expert and allowing amendment to the plaintiff's answer to the defendants' request for particulars because those orders were improperly granted without adequate evidential foundation or were unduly prejudicial when made late; it declined to disturb the judge's decision to award costs on a common fund basis but removed the requirement that costs be taxed and paid before the action could be relisted, permitting relisting while preserving liberty to apply.
