The defendants, including the University of Windsor and various staff, brought a motion to strike the plaintiffs' Fresh as Amended Statement of Claim for disclosing no reasonable causes of action.
The court struck most claims, including those related to academic disputes, human rights violations, professional misconduct, and intentional infliction of mental suffering, finding them to be matters for internal university processes or judicial review, or not properly pleaded.
However, leave was granted to amend claims for negligence related to a personal injury (knee injury sustained during an intramural volleyball game) and for breach of contract and negligent/fraudulent misrepresentation concerning an alleged scholarship guarantee.
The claims of the plaintiff's family members were limited to Family Law Act damages arising from the knee injury.
