Cases

Mahfouz and another v Brisard & another

Comment

This judgment is important for the Court's reluctance to make a declaration of falsity. In an action concerning an internet publication involving the C1 and D1 Eady J made a declaration of falsity: [2004] EWHC 1735 (QB). However, after the Court of Appeal expressed reservations about whether a Judge could properly do so in cases involving allegations of terrorist funding in Jameel v Dow Jones at §67, Gray J declined to do so here.
