Description

Analyses and assesses the Supreme Court judgement in 'APN New Zealand Ltd v Simunovich Fisheries Ltd' with a focus on its treatment of the defence of truth for a defamation claim. Discusses the future implications of the ruling for media publishers. Argues that the judgement erects an unnecessary further obstacle that will prevent the submission of relevant and reliable evidence.
