The applicants brought an application to declare the respondent a vexatious litigant under section 140 of the Courts of Justice Act.
The court found that the respondent had persistently and without reasonable grounds instituted numerous unmeritorious actions, motions, and appeals over a decade, while failing to pay over $150,000 in costs orders.
The court granted the application, prohibiting the respondent from instituting or continuing any proceedings in Ontario without leave of a judge, and awarded substantial indemnity costs to the applicants.
