Account for profits by media in publishing defamatory material |
Dear Restitution Group Members
Is any of the group aware of any case in the Commonwealth
(British) where a Court has awarded restitutionary relief (viz account
for profits) against media in defamation claims (rather than compensatory
based awards). This is on the basis that new stories generate advertising
revenue which may exceed the amount awarded under a compensation basis.
Many thanks
