The consent judgment resolving the caveat and complaint matters operated as res judicata/estoppel and barred both parties from re‑litigating the same subject matter; alternatively, the defendant's complaint to the Disciplinary Board was an occasion of qualified privilege and plaintiff failed to prove malice, and the defendant failed to prove abuse of process, conspiracy or compensable damages, therefore both claim and counter‑claim were dismissed and parties ordered to bear their own costs.
