Weird case of the week

Some Guy v. The World, Ontario Superior Court

While our plan is to focus on odd decisions with the Weird Case of the Week, this motion could not go by unremarked.

Thanks to Chris Jaglowitz (@chrisjaglowitz), a Toronto condo lawyer with Gardiner MIller Arnold, for his tweet alerting us to this case on the docket for Justice Peter Cumming at the courthouse at 330 University Ave. in Toronto for tomorrow. His tweet describes it thusly: "Here's the door sheet for some guy's lawsuit vs the whole world. Waste of judges' time and precious court resources."
