Procedural Posture

Civil Restraint Order Extension Application / Hearing and Judgment on Application to Extend Ecros

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether the court has jurisdiction to extend ECROs after expiry
  2. 2 Whether it is appropriate to extend ECROs against the defendants for a further two years

Ratio Decidendi

It is appropriate and necessary to extend the ECROs against both defendants for a further two years because they have persistently issued totally without merit claims and applications based on a flawed legal argument, and there is a real risk of further vexatious litigation absent the orders. The court retains jurisdiction to extend the ECROs even after expiry, and the evidence demonstrates ongoing abuse of process by the defendants.

Court Disposition

Application granted

Orders

  • The extended civil restraint orders against Mr Floyd Wilson and Mrs Sharon Wilson are extended for a further period of two years.
