Defamation claim dismissed - consider more carefully, "reluctant gladiator"

Pikes & Verekers successfully represented a defendant in defamation proceedings dismissed by the District Court when the plaintiff brought a claim outside the statutory 12 month time limit. Of significance was that the plaintiff could not specify the date of the publications or the nature of the defamation in his statement of claim, only vaguely claiming that he had been defamed.
