Cases

Nail v News Group Newspapers Ltd & Others (CA)

Comment

This judgment confirms that compensation in offer of amends cases is to be determined on the same principles as cases that proceed to assessment by the conventional route. The making of an offer of amends will usually amount to substantial mitigation, but there is no standard discount to be applied as each case will turn on its facts. This decision should lay to rest comments that there is a new lower scale of compensation applicable in offer of amends cases.
