Sec. 904.243  Admissions.



    (a) Request. If ordered by the Judge, any party may serve on any 

other party a written request for admission of the truth of any relevant 

matter of fact set forth in the request, including the genuineness of 

any relevant document described in the request. Copies of documents must 

be served with the request. Each matter of which an admission is 

requested must be separately stated.

    (b) Response. Each matter is admitted unless a written answer or 

objection is served within 20 days of service of the request, or within 

such other time as the Judge may allow. The answering party must 

specifically admit or deny each matter, or state the reasons why he or 

she cannot truthfully admit or deny it.

    (c) Effect of admission. Any matter admitted is conclusively 

established unless the Judge on motion permits withdrawal or amendment 

of it for good cause shown.
