The original statement of claim alleged the teen had access to necessary support through one government department as a child, but that was "arbitrarily and unreasonably" discontinued after she turned 18. Marc Leroux of Timmins, Ont., launched the suit in April 2017 on behalf of his then-19-year-old daughter, Briana Leroux, who court documents say is non-verbal and requires support services 24/7. The lawsuit, which accuses the province of harm-causing negligence, seeks $110 million in damages and asks for a declaration that the government has failed adults assessed as eligible for help but who have instead been placed on unreasonable wait lists. In a decision last week, Ontario's Court of Appeal restored a motion judge's order that found there was a strong enough case to allow the suit's untested claims to proceed to trial as a class action.
