Cases

Club La Costa (UK) PLC v (1) Toby Gebhard (2) Inventory Solutions (UK) Limited

Facts

The Claimant sued for slander over the contents of a telephone conversation in which the Claimant contended the Defendants had referred to the Claimant and defamed it. The Defendants argued that in relation to one of their allegations they had made an offer to make amends to the Claimant under section 2 of the Defamation Act 1996. They relied on this by way of defence, but at the same time denied they had referred to the Claimant and contended in any event that the telephoned conversation had taken place on an occasion of qualified privilege.
