Publisher Associated Newspapers (ANL) had sought at hearings in March to have the case thrown out, saying the claims that were brought in October 2022 were outside a six-year time limit for legal action. Harry, the younger son of King Charles, along with Elton John, and the other five claimants accuse ANL, which publishes the Daily Mail and the Mail on Sunday, of phone-hacking and other serious privacy breaches dating back 30 years.

"They have lied under oath, perjured themselves in the process and have proven they're above the law. "I don't think he's got that much to lose, given the vilification that he has suffered from the British press over the last 15 years." "Nevertheless, the dynamic duo of monarchy and media — although neither talk of their intertwined dependence — are hard at work to ensure the coronation is smash-hit entertainment. "It is clear to me that the tabloid press are the mothership of online trolling," he wrote. How much more blood will stain their typing fingers before someone can put a stop to this madness?"
LONDON, March 30 (Reuters) - Britain's Prince Harry returned to the High Court in London on Thursday where his lawyer was fighting an attempt by a newspaper publisher to throw out his and other high-profile figures' lawsuit which alleged widespread unlawful acts by journalists. Harry, the singer Elton John and five other high-profile people are suing publisher Associated Newspapers, alleging they were the victims of phone-hacking and other serious privacy breaches by journalists from the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday or private investigators working on their behalf. The publisher's lawyer Adrian Beltrami told the court on Wednesday the claims were rejected "in their entirety". The judge, Matthew Nicklin, is not expected to rule for some weeks on whether the case should proceed to trial. During an exchange with Sherborne, he suggested that if it did, it would be a "massive trial" which would last a "substantial period of time".
