Prince Harry's Legal Battle Against the British Press and Home Office

Prince Harry is suing Mail on Sunday publisher Associated Newspapers Ltd. for libel over an article alleging he tried to hush up his separate legal challenge over the British government’s refusal to let him pay for police security. Harry's lawyers have asked the judge to strike out the publisher's defense or to deliver a summary judgment in the prince's favor without going to trial. The prince wants to pay personally for police security when he comes to Britain, but the government said that wasn’t possible. The judge said he would rule at a later date.
