Catchwords

The present case exemplifies that danger. The Defendant’s conduct—marked by the persistent pursuit of claims already decided, and the proliferation of collateral proceedings—has significantly burdened the Plaintiffs and the judicial process. It is precisely to forestall such misuse that the law on vexatious litigants exists. While the Federal Constitution guarantees liberty and equality under Articles 5 and 8 respectively, these rights are to be exercised in accordance with the law. The Constitution does not confer an unlimited right of access to justice; rather, such access must be tempered by legal boundaries and respect for final judicial determinations. Courts are empowered to act when access to justice is transformed into a tool for harassment and oppression.
