Publisher Joined as Defendant to Defamation Proceedings Despite Being Outside Statutory Time Limit

Hughes v Iconic Newspapers Limited T/A Leinster Leader [2023] IEHC 635 (High Court (General), Ferriter J, 16 October 2023)

The High Court, in defamation proceedings, granted an order directing that the plaintiff can add a newspaper publisher as a second defendant, despite being outside the statutory 12-month limitation period, on the grounds, inter alia, that: the potential prejudice to the plaintiff significantly outweighed that to the defendant; and but for the misleading information as to the publisher of the newspaper contained on its website, the defendant would not be in a position to advance any statute defence because if the correct information had been published there, the proceedings would have been issued against it within the 12-month period.
