15 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““While leave to amend “shall be freely given when justice so requires”, Fed.R.Civ.P. 15(a), parties seeking the benefit of the rule’s liberality have an obligation to exercise due diligence; unseemly delay, in combination with other factors, may warrant denial of a suggested amendment.
