The appeal to join Mok as a second defendant was dismissed because the plaintiff failed to plead any overt act by Mok from which an agreement to conspire or fraudulent participation could be inferred, and the acts pleaded were as consistent with innocence as with guilt; consequently paragraphs relating to Mok were disallowed. The amendment to the plaintiff's pleaded English ability was allowed because amendments should be permitted to ensure justice where no irremediable prejudice arises and the statement of truth regime does not preclude such amendments.
