DATE: 20170209

SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE - ONTARIO

RE: MARGARET STRANG (MALGORZATA) Plaintiff

-and-

PARAGON SECURITY et al. Defendants

READ: February 9, 2017

ENDORSEMENT

[1] The court has reviewed the statement of claim in this matter at its own initiative under Rules 2.1.01(1) and (7).

[2] The statement of claim appears on its face to be frivolous, vexatious, or an abuse of process. The plaintiff’s complaints are not readily discernable. They appear to stem from mistreatment that the plaintiff alleges occurred when security guards employed by the building landlord attended to assist the police and her employer remove her from its business premises.

[3] In any event, although it is possible to discern individual allegations of unlawful conduct in the statement of claim, on its face, the pleading is patently non-justiciable. While making all manner of bald, heinous allegations against many individuals, the pleading as a whole bears hallmarks of querulant litigant. Gao v. Ontario WSIB, 2014 ONSC 6497 at paras. 14 and 15. The claim appears to be frivolous in the sense of having no chance of success as discussed in Currie v. Halton Regional Police Services Board, 2003 CanLII 7815 (ON CA),

[4] On reviewing the material forwarded by the registrar, the court makes the following order:

a. Pursuant to subrule 2.1.01(3)(1), the registrar is directed to give notice to the plaintiff in Form 2.1A that the court is considering making an order under Rule 2.1.01 dismissing the action;

b. Pending the outcome of the written hearing under rule 2.1 or further order of the court, the plaintiff’s action is stayed pursuant to s.106 of the Courts of Justice Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.C.43[^1];

c. The registrar shall accept no further filings in this action excepting only the plaintiff’s written submissions if delivered in accordance with rule 2.1.01(3);

d. In addition to the service by mail required by 2.1.01(4) rule, the registrar is to serve a copy of this endorsement and a Form 2.1A notice on the plaintiff and counsel for the defendants by email if it has their email addresses.
