A Nanaimo man who had a $32-trillion lawsuit thrown out of court earlier this year was unsuccessful in trying to appeal that decision.

Tyler Chamberlin, who filed a civil claim against ICBC in 2020 after he was struck by a vehicle while riding his bike in a hit-and-run in 2018, had his application to the B.C. Court of Appeal thrown out on Tuesday, July 20.

The hearing was July 5 in Vancouver, with the appellant and lawyers for seven respondents 91Ƶ ICBC, the Attorney General of B.C., the Attorney General of Canada, Island Health, the City of Nanaimo, the Chief Electoral Officer of B.C. and the College of Physicians and Surgeons of B.C. 91Ƶ participating via teleconference.

Justice Reginald Harris wrote in his judgment that the appellant, at the hearing, attempted 91Ƶto expand the scope of his appeals91Ƶ and when the judge tried to provide guidance, the appellant 91Ƶinterrupted me repeatedly with profanity-laden outbursts.91Ƶ

Harris concluded it was unnecessary to hear from respondents and adjourned the hearing, giving the appellant a week to provide written submissions, which were received July 13.

The B.C. Court of Appeal judgment notes that Chamberlin did not articulate 91Ƶany argument to suggest the judge made an error91Ƶ in the Supreme Court decision and instead attempted to raise 91Ƶsubstantive issues91Ƶ not subject to appeal.

The appellant asked that the court order Island Health to pay a $1-billion fine, B.C. Ferries a $1-million pay 91Ƶfor denying Mr. Chamberlin access [and] obstructing justice,91Ƶ and require the Queen to 91Ƶtell the truth about COVID-1991Ƶ and Bible prophecy. The judge wrote that he would not dignify the appellant91Ƶs arguments by recounting them in detail.

91ƵMuch of it is abusive. Moreover, the argument contains overt threats 91Ƶ More importantly, the argument is entirely irrelevant to the issues on this appeal,91Ƶ the judge wrote. 91ƵThe argument is rooted in Mr. Chamberlin91Ƶs belief that in some way his motor vehicle accident was a result of a giant conspiracy, rooted in corruption throughout Canada.91Ƶ

The B.C. Supreme Court judge, this past winter, had opted against a vexatious litigant order because of doubt that Chamberlin would be able to comply with new court filing standards.

The Appeal Court judge said Chamberlin will not be entitled to file further applications for appeal unless he is able to obtain an order allowing him an extension of time to file certain court documents.
