The court admitted the three late emails because they were contemporaneous and on their face relevant and necessary to specific disputed issues, the explanation for lateness and the offer to mitigate prejudice (including recalling the witness) outweighed the prejudice to defendant, and there was no sufficient basis to adjourn or exclude them under the balancing exercise required by authority.
