|    TURMEL: Crown tries to dismiss new damag    |

      From: johnturmel@yahoo.com              TURMEL: Crown tries to dismiss new damages claims with old.              JCT: Letter from the Crown to some new filers for damages:              Federal Court Registries              Dear Sir or Madam,              Re: Darren Roy MacDonald v. HMTQ No. T-1111-16       Jacey Joseph Edward Careme v. HMTQ No. T-1112-16       Robert James Woolsey v. HMTQ No. T-1239-16              On behalf of the Defendant, I am writing to request that these       matters be made subject to the motion to strike filed by       Canada in several related matters on April 26 2016.              Plaintiffs in T-1111-16 and T-1117-16 are also plaintiffs T-       1531-15 and T-1528-15. Those seek damages for the alleged loss       ofmedical marijuana, plants and production sites whednthe       prior personal marihuana production regime embodiedby the MMAR       was repealed on March 30 1014 and succeeded by the MMPR.       OnApril 26, Canada filed a motion in writing tostrike these       and several related claoims on thegrounds that it was plain       and obvious that they did not disclose a reasonable cause of       action. With respect to the claim for damages, Canada's motion       also asserts that damages are unavailable for unconstitutional       legislation absent conduct that was clearly wrong, in bad       faith, or an abuse of power, none of which is pleaded by the       plaintiffs. The above-noted plaintiffs once again seek damages       for the loss of their marijuana, plants, production sites when       the MMAr were succeeded by the MMPR. The new claims should be       dismissed for the same reasons as the previously filed claims.       The new claims contain virtually no facts concerning the       plaintiff's personal medical circumstances              JCT: Keep forgetting our Affidavit comes after their Statement       of Defence which they haven't yet filed.              or any facts capable of supporting the constitutional       violations alleged.              With respect to the requests for damages, although the       plaintiffs now baldly assert that the MMPR were enacted in bad       faith, they have provided no particulars of this allegation.       For example, the claims fail entirely to identify a public       official or officials said to have held acted in bad faith. It       is plain and obvious that the claims cannot succeed in these       circumstances. Canada therefore requests that the claims be       made subject to its previsouly filed motion to strike.              The plaintiffs in the matters T-1111-16 and T-1117 have been       previously served with Canada's motion materials in support of       the motion to strike and proof of this service has been       previously filed.              With respect to the plaintiff in the matter with File T-1239-       16 please find enclosed an Affidavit of Service confirming       that Canada's motion materials have now also been served on       this plaintiff.              JCT: Okay, so two had already filed Actions for damages linked       to Allard while only one filed for pure damages without       seeking the Allard declaration of invalidity. Wonder why he       shouldn't get his claim heard? Oh right, it's "plain and       obvious" what he didn't explain was "plain and obvious."              The worst that can happen is they get lumped in with the old       Gold Stars. And having the newbie attached can't hurt either.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
