Harry, Elton John Hit With $13M Costs Bill in Daily Mail Privacy Case
Prince Harry, Elton John and several other privacy-claimants were ordered to pay about $13 million in legal costs to Associated Newspapers Limited (the Daily Mail publisher) after their privacy lawsuit was dismissed by a High Court judge. The seven claimants must make the payment by August 28, with the total bill likely to exceed $46 million when all costs are accounted for. The group had claimed unlawful information gathering and other privacy breaches, but the court rejected the allegations and the claims were dismissed as insufficiently proven; Harry called the ruling a whitewash."
