May 13 Toronto The lawyer for John Mooney, president of the Ontario Jockey Club, asked Justice S.M. McBride of the Supreme Court of Ontario to dismiss several parts of John Damien's statement of claim against him, including the allegation that Mooney was motivated by prejudice against Damien's sexual orientation.
