Reposting on this thread, ....an interesting explanation from Reuters, about why Hazno is suing the Daily Mail. I think foreign papers might be less restricted in what they can say!

EXPLAINER: Why is Prince Harry suing the Daily Mail publisher? (msn.com)

Associated Newspapers cites the substantial publicity arising from the inquiry and subsequent criminal prosecutions and civil lawsuits. The publisher argues the claimants should have known they could sue more than six years ago – meaning the cases should be thrown out of court.

In Harry's case, Associated Newspapers' lawyers argue the prince was aware that members of staff in the royal household had their phones hacked and refer to his memoir "Spare" which referred to the closure of the News of the World in 2011.

The claimants' lawyers say alleged unlawful information gathering was deliberately hidden by Associated Newspapers for years and they did not discover that they could bring a lawsuit until recently.


WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE PRESS?

Litigation over allegations of unlawful information gathering has been going on for years, with the vast majority of claims being brought against Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN), publisher of the Daily Mirror, and News Group Newspapers (NGN), publisher of the now-defunct News of the World and the Sun.

Harry is expected to give evidence in May at a High Court trial of his and others' privacy claims against MGN, which was launched in 2019 at the same time as a similar lawsuit against NGN. MGN is fighting Harry's case, which would be only the second "phone hacking" trial if it goes ahead and is not settled before it is heard.

Elton John and his husband David Furnish, as well as actor Liz Hurley, have brought and settled lawsuits against MGN and NGN in recent years.

But these lawsuits mark the first time Associated Newspapers has been dragged into the row, which has seen hundreds of settlements in cases brought against MGN and NGN - which has always denied any liability in relation to the Sun.

The allegations made by Lawrence - whose fight for justice was long supported by the Daily Mail - will be most concerning to the publisher, which said it had "campaigned tirelessly for 25 years to obtain justice for Stephen Lawrence" when the lawsuits were announced in October.

The DM is arguing that the other cases were all brought before 2006, so are unsure why this case has been raised... Only 17 years too late!
Because if there’s a tone deaf, self serving bandwagon to claw their way on to you can guarantee that WalmartWallis and Vomit will be there.

Just wondering.......Elton John and co, seem to do a lot of sueing papers and then arranging privately a lucrative deal.

They do actually seem to want privacy! Unlike our Privacy loving Prince, who seems to love the attention! I wonder if they actually want this massive circus deal? With additional publicity internationally? This critical article is from the Independent!!

He came to a trial that he wasn't needed for because he thought King Charles would be in France on his first-ever state visit as Monarch (?) But he couldn't show up for his Grandfather's memorial service.

Harry is a problem that they are going to have to deal with honestly. He is malicious. He has a malevolent spirit.

This is why Prince William isn't announcing major engagements anymore.
Did he give the required 28 days notice?

Does anyone else find it strange that Harry was in Miami? I personally find it weird that nowadays he seems to be constantly away from Archie and Lili and I have a feeling that something is not right as he never seems to be in Montecito anymore.
LAX-LHR is a popular route, why would he fly from LA to Miami? Business? Partying?

What looks interesting is that this court case, seems to be heavily relying on privileged evidence given to the Leveson enquiry, in 2007 by the newspapers, to help clarify evidence,
Evidence that was given under the understanding that it wouldnt be used against them, that was meant to be kept secret!!!

Oops....could be an interesting legal minefield!!!!

Ohh private investigator, Glenn Mulcaire was prosecuted for illegal phone tapping for the News of the World, but........he also apparently supplied evidence used by the Mail.....

I'm exhausted by the whole thing. Don't understand why he thought he needed to show his face.

He needs dealing with now, he's like a turd that won't flush.

Wonder what the ILBW is up to.

The only reason that I can think of is that he attended the Ultra Music Festival which ran from the 24th to the 26th, but even if he did attend that event he would have been photographed IMO the fact he hasn't tells me that he was in Miami for reasons that we don't know about.

Thanks for the new thread and great title. Jolly good stuff!

Hopefully people will shout 'Traitor' at haz when he's out and about with his 'Look at me' sign. Sigh.

I love the 24 hours notice to enter the country. That’s enough time for the real Royals to make haste. “Talk to the tailwind Harry”
