Catchwords

The Court reiterates that litigation should not be used as a tool for oppression or delay. A party that knowingly persists in untenable claims, particularly after conceding a lack of cause of action, risks adverse cost consequences and potential sanctions. The judicial process must be respected, and courts will not hesitate to strike out claims that serve no legitimate legal purpose.
