From laurence@godfreynet.co.uk Thu Mar 7 22:43:15 2002 From: Laurence Godfrey (laurence@godfreynet.co.uk) To: jericho@attrition.org Cc: staff@attrition.org Date: Tue, 05 Mar 2002 02:05:07 +0000 Subject: Fwd: Re: your defamatory posting you wrote: :Have you even looked up the definition of libel or slander you dipshit? :This post appears to be nothing more than 4 questions. These are not :statements, not accusations, just questions. : I am trained in law and in this respect I can assure you that you are completely wrong. There are a number of authorities on this matter. If you are not persuaded, I suggest that you ask your own lawyer. :The only way they would be defamatory is they were a) true and b) a source :of embarassment. Your mail to us suggests that they are at least true. As above. I clearly stated in my earlier e-mail that they were false. If you carry out your infantile threats to republish the statements complained of I will without further notice issue legal proceedings against your company. Mine are not idle threats - I have been successful in defamation proceedings several times in the past, including against US companies. In any event, I strongly suggest that you obtain legal advice before doing anything for which you will ultimately be held liable.
