Yesterday, Mrs Justice Collins Rice heard the first application brought before the High Court under CPR 3.4(2)(d) to strike out a claim as a SLAPP. The application was brought by the Defendants in the case of Setu Kamal v (1) Tax Policy Associates Ltd & (2) Daniel Neidle, alongside other strike out applications and an application for summary judgment in respect of honest opinion. The Claimant resisted the applications.
5RB’s Greg Callus and Hannah Gilliland acted for the Defendants, Tax Policy Associates Ltd and Daniel Neidle, instructed by the Good Law Project.
