The Court of Appeal held the appellant's action was barred by res judicata because the same subject matter and reliefs had been adjudicated or fell squarely within issues that could and should have been raised in earlier proceedings (charge action and Suit 723); the illegality exception did not apply because the appellant failed to raise the point earlier or appeal and the alleged defects did not justify collateral attack under the narrow exception for substantive illegality.
