Sheikha Mouza al Misnad v Azzaman Ltd & Others


Held

Refusing summary judgment:

When assessing the responsibility shown by journalists and publishers under a Reynolds defence it might be relevant to consider what was possible for a journalist to do in a particular country. As such, and in view of the conflict of evidence (including expert evidence) between the parties, the case was not suitable for summary determination. In particular, Part 24 was not suitable where Article 10 rights were engaged and where a Claimant was seeking (as here) injunctive relief extending over many countries.
