Admissions and estoppel: admissions lack conclusive evidentiary force but may preclude contrary positions where estoppel applies.

Admissions are not conclusive proof of matters admitted, but may operate as estoppels where applicable provisions governing estoppel are satisfied. Their evidentiary character remains non-final, although they may have binding legal consequences that prevent a party from departing from an admitted position in circumstances governed by estoppel, as legally applicable.
