I think we should be clear, the job is not to convince anyone, that you meant every word, defamation is about whether the complainant's reputation has been damaged by your words and/or actions and thats what needs to be proved/dispproved.Originally Posted by Dave A
I suppose I'd better get this off my chest, because I've certainly been thinking it. When I read:
I did think that it might be cheaper in the long run for you to hire a lawyer to represent you. Depends on the facts of the matter to some extent, I guess.
Anyhow, seems you're old and grumpy enough to know your own business and make up your own mind in these things
May you get a wise and reasonably sympathetic judge.
Litigating just to prove one really feels something may just lead to a punitive costs order.
With out all the facts, it may be somewhat presumptious, but this sounds like a squabble and a scrap that could have and may still be able to be resolved over a beer and an arm wrestle rather than in a court. [Probably much cheaper as well depending on one's capacity for consumption and the events that transpire form a night of revellery.]
