The self-represented plaintiff brought an action against the Crown, the Attorney General, and the police for malicious prosecution, misfeasance in public office, and other torts arising from his arrest and prosecution for offences related to underage prostitution.
The charges had been withdrawn following a resolution involving a peace bond and forfeiture order.
The plaintiff sought leave under s. 17 of the Crown Liability Proceedings Act to proceed with his claims of misfeasance and bad faith, while the defendants moved to strike the claims under Rule 21.01(1)(b).
The court denied the plaintiff's motion for leave and granted the defendants' motions to strike, finding that the plaintiff failed to plead sufficient material facts to support his claims and that the claims were barred by prosecutorial immunity and statutory protections.
The actions were dismissed without leave to amend.
