Kumar v. Khurana, 2019 ONSC 6825

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice awarded the plaintiff $500 as nominal damages in a default judgment against his nephew over five emails sent to a small number of the plaintiff’s relatives. The Court stated that the emails “were sent in quick succession on three days, and may be appropriately described as insults or rants to which reasonable people would likely give little credence.”
