Nationwide News
Successfully defended Nationwide News, in what became Victoria’s longest running defamation trial, 34 sitting days. Atkinson Prakash Charan sued Nationwide News over an article published in The Australian newspaper, which he allegedly conveyed he engaged in unscrupulous business practices in the management of a group of registered training organisations. Justin and team successfully defended the claim. Mr Charan appealed the decision, which was dismissed by the Court of Appeal in early 2019 and Nationwide News was awarded its appeal costs.
