Issue: The court needed to decide whether the notice of civil claim filed by Ajvazi should be struck out according to Rule 9-5(1) of the Supreme Court Civil Rules for failing to disclose a reasonable cause of action, being confusing, and potentially brought for an improper purpose.
Court's Ruling: The court ruled to strike the notice of civil claim without leave to amend, finding Ajvazi's pleadings did not meet the necessary legal standards. The claim was deemed to lack concise statements of material facts, a clear legal basis for the relief sought, and was considered speculative and based on assumptions. It was emphasized that a lawyer owes a duty only to their client, and allegations against the opposing party's counsel do not constitute actionable breaches of private duty.
