The court found the plaintiff had abused the process by instituting multiple separate actions to obtain collateral advantages (apologies/evidence for use against Heath and to re‑open an inquiry) and to aggravate defendants' costs to coerce settlement; because there was a prima facie cause of action the proper remedy was a stay (not dismissal) limited to permitting an application for consolidation; plaintiff ordered to pay defendants' costs with certificate for counsel to be taxed and paid forthwith.
