- DCPI189/2004
Because the plaintiff had already had the same injuries assessed and fully satisfied in earlier proceedings against the driver, and did not join the hospital or seek apportionment or provisional damages, pursuing the hospital for the same loss would be an abuse of process and would produce double recovery; therefore the hospital's strike-out application succeeds and the claim is dismissed.
