The appeal was dismissed because (1) the appellant's prolonged inaction amounted to abuse of process warranting striking out, (2) the claim against the sponsoring body disclosed no reasonable cause of action in the pleadings, (3) the Teachers' communications were plainly protected by qualified privilege absent pleaded or demonstrated actual malice, and (4) the consolidated statement of claim was scandalous, prolix and beyond reasonable salvage; accordingly the statement of claim was struck out and the action dismissed.
