The individual defendants, Kastriot Ademaj and Leo Burnaccioni, brought a motion under Rule 21.01(1)(b) to dismiss the claim against them personally, arguing it disclosed no reasonable cause of action.
The plaintiff, Thomas Haggan, brought a cross-motion under Rule 26 to amend his statement of claim to include claims against the individual defendants for intentional infliction of emotional distress.
The court granted the defendants' motion, finding no factual basis to pierce the corporate veil or establish personal liability for the officers acting within their corporate capacity.
The court denied the plaintiff's request to amend the statement of claim, as the proposed amendments lacked sufficient factual underpinning to disclose a reasonable cause of action against the individual defendants.
