Key Points:

  • Background:
    Ahmad Mohammad filed a lawsuit against David Farar (President of McMaster University), Catherine Munn (an administrative person at McMaster and his former psychiatrist), and Stephen Hart (with no clear connection mentioned in the claim).
  • Previous Litigation:
    The case arises from Mohammad's ongoing disputes with McMaster University, where he was previously a student. There have been multiple previous cases where Mohammad's claims against the University and its affiliates were dismissed as frivolous or vexatious.
  • Claims in the Current Case:
    • Allegations against Farar and Munn include privacy breaches, false medical diagnoses, and orchestrating actions against Mohammad involving police.
    • No substantive facts were provided to support these claims.
  • Court's Findings:
    • The court dismissed the action under Rule 2.1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, which allows for the dismissal of frivolous or vexatious proceedings.
    • The court found the claim lacked a legal basis and was poorly articulated.
    • The action was deemed an abuse of the court process due to repeated baseless litigation by Mohammad.
  • Outcome:
    The case was dismissed without costs to the defendants due to its frivolous and vexatious nature.
     No monetary award was specified in the decision.
