The court found the essence of the Plaintiff's claim was to challenge the validity of a public law decision (the retrospective interdiction and the consequent withholding and forfeiture of salary), so the proceedings constituted an abuse of process brought to avoid Order 53; therefore the originating summons must be struck out and the claimant should pursue judicial review if appropriate.
