The Constitutional Court dealt with an appeal about a vexatious litigant order and a mental health assessment order made by the High Court. It upheld the vexatious litigant order in part, but set aside the mental health assessment order and substituted a narrower order tied to the employment dispute. The Court also directed that it would not accept further applications from the applicant about the same employment matters and ordered each party to bear its own costs.
This may be relevant to matters involving vexatious litigation, court-directed mental health assessment orders, and the Court’s process for limiting further applications in repeated employment disputes.
