An act of parliament of 1896, authorizing the High to be habitually and vexatiously litigious, without reasonable ground, shall not institute legal proceedings in that or any other court, without leave of the High Court judge thereof, upon satisfactory proof that such legal proceedings are not an abuse of the process of the court and that there is a prima facie ground therefor. The order when made is published in the Gazette. See 76 L. T. 351; [1913] W. N. 274 (Div. Ct.).
