Lawsuit against Mike Ward: Supreme Court dismisses Sylvie Gabriel's application
- The Supreme Court dismissed Sylvie Gabriel's application to obtain compensation from comedian Mike Ward, ending her legal efforts that lasted nearly 12 years.
- Gabriel sought $84,600, claiming significant harm from Ward's joke about her son, Jérémie Gabriel, who has Treacher Collins syndrome.
- The court ruled that the comments did not meet the discrimination criterion, as Jérémie was a well-known singer at the time.
- This ruling follows a split decision in 2021, where the Supreme Court favored Ward, stating the case was about defamation, not discrimination.
