On Tuesday, Ruck won a self-represented case against the City of Mississauga, challenging part of a weed control bylaw that prohibits growing grass over 20 centimetres and growing certain plants. Ruck was seeking $2.46 million in damages and other relief, but he was not awarded any money, according the ruling.

$2.46 million in damages?? Man’s out here seeking $1 for every overgrown blade of grass on his lawn.

It was violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, so I’m sure that played into it.

Edit: plus 4 years of legal fees
