Prince Harry Ordered to Pay Legal Fees for Failed Court Challenge

Prince Harry has been ordered by a judge to pay nearly £50,000 ($60,000) in legal fees to the publisher of the Daily Mail tabloid for his failed court challenge in a libel lawsuit. The lawsuit revolves around an article that claimed Harry tried to hide his efforts to retain publicly funded protection in the UK after leaving his role as a working member of the royal family. The judge ruled that the publisher has a "real prospect" of showing that the statements issued on Harry's behalf were misleading and that the article reflected an "honest opinion" and wasn't libelous. A libel trial is scheduled to take place between May 17 and July 31.

Prince Harry's Libel Case Against Daily Mail Publisher Faces Early Setback

Prince Harry has lost a preliminary round in his libel case against the publisher of the Daily Mail tabloid. The judge ruled that the publisher can argue that the article reflected an "honest opinion" and was not libelous. The publisher has a "real prospect" of showing that public statements issued on Harry's behalf were misleading. The ruling comes after another judge concluded arguments over whether the government unfairly stripped Harry of his security detail. Harry is challenging the government's decision to provide security on a case-by-case basis when he and his family visit Britain. This is one of four lawsuits Harry has pending against British tabloids.

Prince Harry's ongoing legal battle with the media.

Prince Harry, Elton John, and other celebrities are suing Associated Newspapers Ltd. for allegedly paying private investigators to illegally bug homes and cars and to record phone conversations. The publisher has argued that lawsuits based on alleged incidents dating as far back as 1993 should be thrown out because the cases were not filed within a six-year limitation period. The judge will rule soon on whether to throw out or limit the phone hacking lawsuit.
