Cases

HRH The Prince of Wales v Associated Newspapers Ltd


Comment

This is the first instalment of what promises to be a very interesting case. This was the directions hearing prior to a summary judgment application which is likely to be heard sometime in February 2006. Amongst a number of issues, it is likely to explore the vexed area of the ambit of a public interest defence to copyright infringement and could also raise matters of significant constitutional importance as to the role of the Claimant.
