Verdict due today on Mosley lawsuit
The judgment in FIA president Max Mosley's privacy case against the News of the World is scheduled to be given in the London High Court this morning
The presiding judge, Mr. Justice Eady, is expected to deliver his verdict in the case in Court 13 at 10am.
Mosley took legal action against the News of the World for a breach of privacy after they ran a story of his involvement in an orgy with prostitutes - which the newspaper claimed had Nazi themes.
The story attracted huge coverage around the world and left Mosley facing a vote of confidence in his presidency in June. He won the vote.
Mosley is seeking 'exemplary' damages against the News of the World for the story - in what could be a landmark case for privacy in Britain. He has promised to donate any damages he wins to charity.
Widespread opinion is that Mosley will win the action against the newspaper, but the scale of his victory will be judged on the level of damages awarded.
