Court File and Parties
COURT FILE NO.: CV-24-00728912-0000 DATE: 2024-11-01 SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE - ONTARIO
RE: Xinrui Zhang AND: Arts & Science Students’ Union and Jane Seto
BEFORE: J.T. Akbarali J.
COUNSEL: Xinrui Zhang, in person Christ Donovan, for the defendants
HEARD: In writing
Endorsement
[1] Counsel for the defendants has requested that the court consider dismissing this application under r. 2.1.01(6) of the Rules of Civil Procedure, R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 194. The request has been forwarded to me for review.
[2] It appears that the application may be frivolous, vexatious, or abusive. The claim does not identify a claim against the defendants, or even state facts from which a claim may be inferred. It does not identify the relief sought. It consists solely of two items of “evidence,” both of which appears to be excerpts from messages, from which no context is discernible.
[3] I make the following order:
a. Pursuant to subrule 2.1.02(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 subrule 2.1.01(1) dismissing the action;
b. Pending the outcome of the written hearing under r. 2.1.01(3) or further order of the court, the plaintiff’s action against all of the defendants is stayed pursuant to s. 106 of the Courts of Justice Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.43;
c. The registrar shall accept no further filings in this action excepting only the plaintiff’s written submissions if delivered in accordance with r. 2.1.01(3), that is, written submissions from the plaintiff of no more than 10 pages in length delivered within 15 days of receiving the notice under Form 2.1A;
d. In addition to the service by mail required by rule 2.1.01(4), the registrar shall serve a copy of this endorsement and a Form 2.1A notice on the plaintiff and counsel for the defendants if it has their email addresses.
J.T. Akbarali J.
