Prince Harry's Phone Hacking Case: High Court Rules in His Favor

TL;DR Summary
The UK High Court has ruled that Prince Harry was the victim of "extensive" phone hacking by Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) from 2006 to 2011. The court awarded him £140,600 ($179,000) and found that 15 stories published about him by MGN used unlawful information gathering methods. While 33 articles were considered, fewer than half were found to have used unlawful means. Prince Harry is the first senior member of the British royal family to give evidence on a witness stand in over 130 years. He has also brought lawsuits against other major UK newspaper publishers.
