The claim had been struck out on the basis that the claimant was a proxy for a person against whom an extended civil restraint order had been made. The claimant had herself been made to an ECRO. The point allowed to come to appeal was whether such an order was available when the claimant had not herself repeatedly issued baseless claims.
Held: The requirement that there be at least three totally without merit claims or applications and that these taken together demonstrate persistence was fully satisfied
