Cases

Atlantis World Group of Companies NV & Another v Gruppo Editoriale L'Espresso SpA

Comment

A warning to foreign companies thinking of bringing claims here over minimal publication of foreign language media: proof that they have some reputation that can be damaged is essential. The Judge also accepted that abuse of process of the Jameel variety could be established at trial, and would have dismissed the claims on that ground had he found them otherwise sustainable. The judgment contains a useful succinct summary of the relevant principles.
