In order to preserve the liberty of the subject, in order for our free society to exist as it does in the English speaking world, the people must have free access to the courts and in many cases history has proved that it is the courts that are the final bastion of liberty.

The courts, and they alone, must decide what is and is not just and is and is not frivolous.
Hear Hear! Very well said. :thumbup: The judiciary will come to the same conclusion, no doubt.
