The North Tonawanda City Attorney and the legal staff handle matters such as
small claims against the City, vehicle and traffic violations, and prosecuting housing violations.
The court examined the
small number of Canadian cases where courts accepted the possibility of
claims of malicious prosecution
against professional regulatory bodies, as well as the English case of Gregory v. Portsmouth
City Council, [2000] UKHL 3, [2000] 1 AC 419, where Lord Steyn concluded that the
claim does not extend to disciplinary proceedings.
