Gerry Vindictive has been the floor walker at the local Mallmart Bigstore (located at Middle Minas, Kings County) for five years. Prior to that he was employed by a local shoe business, Discount Shoe Sales, owned by a well-known businessperson, Bing Babdam. Bing fired Gerry for incompetence, and then Gerry sued Bing and they settled the claim out of court. About a month after the settlement Gerry starts working for Mallmart. Bing has a contract with Mallmart whereby he gets a commission for acting as a go-between in purchasing wholesale shoes from eastern European markets for the Bigstore (at extremely low prices). The contract/arrangement has been in place for fifteen years, but under the written terms of the contract each must give the other party at least four months' notice of termination for any reason. Bing is also an avid fly fisher, and on May 12, 2022, just before going on a big fishing trip to the Minipi Watershed in Labrador, realizes he is short on dry fly flotant and buck tail (for making big streamers for big trout). He goes to the Mallmart, and Gerry is on floor walking duties. Gerry, wearing his disguise (in drag with grocery cart in tow) recognizes Bing and follows him to the recreation/fishing department. Although close Gerry does not have a clear view of what Bing is doing. Bing starts stuffing containers of fly flotant into his right pants pocket and packages of buck tail into his left pants pocket. Gerry does hear Bing mutter to himself, "I'm not paying for this crap." Gerry then approaches Bing and announces himself, places his hand on Bing's shoulder, and says, "You are under arrest." He then asks Bing to follow him to the security room in the Bigstore and Bing agrees. Gerry takes Bing to the security room, locks the door behind him, and starts asking him questions. Some of the remarks and questions have nothing to do with the incident, such as, "How is the shoe business?" and "What is it going to feel like being a criminal?" and "I see bankruptcy in your future." After one hour of questioning Bing has had enough and asks Gerry if he can call his lawyer, Bert Slick, and Gerry allows him to call Bert but at the same time calls the police. When the police arrive at the Bigstore they let Bing free but end up charging him with theft under $500. Bing is eventually acquitted of the charge at the criminal trial held on August 3, 2022 because, according to the judge, the Crown has not proven their case beyond a reasonable doubt. Within a week of the police laying the charge Mallmart sends Bing an email advising him that they are giving him one weeks' notice of the cancellation of their above-mentioned shoe supply contract. Before the trial (and Bing's acquittal) Lola Orvis, a local radio personality who has a talk show on current events, calls Bing a "petty thief and disgrace to the community" on the air during one of her weekly radio shows, this particular show dealing with the topic of "local business problems." After his acquittal of the criminal charge Bing wants to sue someone and everyone for damages based on various torts, and comes to you, the best civil litigator in Kings County, and wants you to provide an opinion letter as to all possible legal claims and defences, and his chances of success against all possible parties and persons.
