Anti-SLAPP law to be tested at Ontario Court of Appeal

The court will hear arguments tomorrow in a case where a Toronto doctor is appealing a Superior Court decision that dismissed his libel action against a former head of the Ontario Trial Lawyers Association and ordered him to pay more than $310,000 in costs. Dr. Howard Platnick has also filed a Charter challenge against the Protection of Public Participation Act, in part on the grounds that it favours freedom of expression over damage to reputation.
