Amendment application dismissed because it was not bona fide but a tactical attempt to reinstate a cause of action previously struck out and barred by limitation and res judicata; the alleged in-trial statements did not satisfy the statutory requirement for a written signed acknowledgment to give a fresh accrual under Limitation Act ss 26–27; the application was filed too late, would prejudice defendants by reopening trial and such prejudice could not be compensated by costs, and no reasonable explanation justified the delay.
