The self-represented plaintiff sued a psychiatrist for medical malpractice and lack of informed consent regarding medication side effects.
The defendant moved for summary judgment and a vexatious litigant order.
The court granted summary judgment, dismissing the action because the plaintiff failed to adduce any expert medical evidence to support her claims, which is required in medical malpractice cases.
The court also declared the plaintiff a vexatious litigant under section 140 of the Courts of Justice Act, noting her history of persistently instituting unsuccessful and abandoned proceedings against various healthcare providers without reasonable grounds.
