The lawsuit against Greyhound and Li is proceeding, but has been delayed because the lawyer representing the bus company has just been appointed a federal judge, Prober said. 'We were concerned that it wasn't a strong enough case,' Prober said. Lawyer Jay Prober, who represents Tim McLean Sr., said the government was dropped from his client's lawsuit because there were concerns it wouldn't stand up in court. Lawsuits filed by two separate bus passengers, Debra Tucker and Kayli Shaw, have also been amended to drop the RCMP. The Canadian Press recently discovered that the file was amended in April 2012 to drop the federal government as a defendant and to add 22-year-old McLean's 'infant son' as one of 15 people who have 'been deprived of Tim McLean Jr.'s guidance, care and companionship.'
Victim Tim McLean's father filed a claim soon after his son was killed in the summer of 2008 against Greyhound, perpetrator Vince Li and Canada.
From when Vince Li arrived in Canada to when made a court appearance after beheading Tim McLean, asking the judge 'Please, kill me.'.
