Is a statement of claim struck on the ground that it discloses no cause of action?
Nova Scotia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ingham v. Varga, 2005 NSSC 350 (CanLII):
The defendant says none of this has been pleaded herein. It is the defendant’s position that the statement of claim should be struck on the ground that it discloses no cause of action and therefore meets the “plain and obvious” test set out in Justice Wilson’s Hunt v. Carey, supra.
