Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Shalimar Ali-Hack SC has filed an application seeking to have struck out, the more than $50M suit for damages for defamation brought against her by Magistrate Alex Moore.
In her notice of application, the DPP contends among other things that Magistrate Moore’s action discloses no reasonable ground for bringing the claim, that it is an abuse of the process of the court, and that it is “scandalous, frivolous and vexatious.”
The DPP wants an order staying the proceedings into Magistrate Moore’s challenge until her application would have been fully heard and determined. She also wants court costs and any further relief the court deems just to grant.
