: Cocky Law BlawgBook Review Lawsuit Resolved in Defendant?s Favor
By Rebekah
An author living and working in Israel brings criminal proceedings in France against a law professor and journal editor at NYU who refused to remove from his website a book review by a German professor. Sounds like fun? You bet! International law fans have been eagerly following Calvo-Goller v. Weiler, but it makes tasty reading for anyone. The case offers elements of criminal defamation, academic freedom, forum-shopping, and abuse of the right to sue. You can find the original judgment (in French) here, but don’t miss the background information. Additionally, don’t miss the “defendant’s” blog posts about his experience, where he includes translations of portions the judgment, as well as a fascinating description of how the French legal system approaches defamation. A follow-up post explains the judgment.
