Cases

HRH The Prince of Wales v Associated Newspapers Ltd

Issue

Whether an order under CPR 31.22 should be made. The D accepted for the purposes of argument that the rule applied but argued that (1) the information in the Journal List was not confidential, and already in the public domain (2) relying on Lilly Icos v Pfizer (No 2) [2002] EWCA Civ 2, very good reasons were required for departing from the normal rule of publicity, none of which applied in this case (3) to the extent any protection was appropriate the contractual undertakings given and offered were sufficient.
