Litigant
In the 1950s, Boaks became involved in a series of legal cases in which he launched private prosecutions of public figures who had been involved in road accidents, particularly those involving drunk driving.

Boaks himself was charged and fined several times for publishing "unlawful" advertisements as part of his campaigns.
