Butera v. Boucher, 798 A.2d 340, 353 (R.I.2002) (quoting Clyne v. Doyle, 740 A.2d 781, 783 (R.I.1999) (per curiam)). The elements that must be proven are: "(1) the defendant instituted proceedings or process against the plaintiff and (2) the defendant used these proceedings for an ulterior or wrongful purpose that the proceedings were not designed to accomplish." Butera, 798 A.2d at 353. When viewed in this light, it is apparent that plaintiffs' cause of action necessarily fails.
