Facts

T had brought a libel claim against the BBC over a Panorama programme investigating his activities. The BBC pleaded justification. T had also sought judicial review of a decision by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority. The BBC applied under CPR 5.4(2) for copies of the documents in the court file of the judicial review proceedings. The HFEA did not oppose the application. T indicated an intention to oppose in correspondence but did not attend the hearing and was not represented.
