The appellants appealed an order declaring them vexatious litigants, arguing procedural irregularities in the application process.
The appellants contended that opposing counsel lacked authority to act for all applicants, the application judge lacked authority to hear the matter, the affidavit evidence was inadmissible, and the reasons were inconsistent.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no merit to any of the procedural complaints and upholding the vexatious litigant order.
Substantial indemnity costs were awarded to the respondents due to the appellants' persistent groundless allegations.
