Practice question
A party deliberately represents a fact as true, another believes it and acts on it, and litigation later arises from that representation. May the first party simply falsify the deliberately induced fact under Section 2(a), assuming its requirements are established?
- No; the listed conclusive presumption prevents that inconsistent position in the covered litigation
- Yes; intentional inducement never has procedural consequences
- Yes; the first party may erase the reliance by denying it later
- Yes; conclusive means freely rebuttable
- No; because every statement in every case is conclusive
