Vaughan v London Borough of Lewisham and Others: QBD 20 Dec 2013

The claimant had undertaken a series of nine actions against the several defendants making allegations of discrimination and similar. They had each failed, she had been ordered to pay substantial sums in costs, and was now foamally bankrupt. In these proceedings she alleged defamation in SOSR (Some Other Substantial Reason) hearings. She had stayed other proceedings in order to ensure that these proceedings could proceed, but now appealed against a stay of these proceedings.
Held: The claim was bound to fail and was struck out.
