CHUTSKOFF ESTATE v BONORA

The Plaintiff sought leave to appeal three Decisions, including an Order declaring him a vexatious litigant. Slatter J.A. noted that, under Rule 14.5(1)(j), vexatious litigants must obtain permission to launch any Appeal, including Appeals from a vexatious litigant Order. The Court concluded that there was no basis for granting leave to appeal any of the lower Court Decisions. The Applications fell outside of the one month time period from the pronouncement of the Decisions as required under Rules 14.8(2) and 14.44. Justice Slatter also held that there was no merit to the proposed Appeals. The Applications were dismissed.
