In his trial against publisher Mirror Group Newspapers, Prince Harry has just arrived at the High Court in the heart of London.
He will testify in court today for the first time and will be the first senior member of the Royal Family to do so in recent times, according to the BBC.
Prince Harry and three other individuals filed a lawsuit against the publisher, Mirror Group Newspapers, claiming that information on them was improperly collected to produce stories.
As part of this illegal gathering, they believe journalists from the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and The People exploited a security gap to access their voicemails and hear messages left by friends and family.
Mirror Group Newspapers previously acknowledged that phone hacking had occurred, but claims that it hadn’t in these instances.
This is a test case; if Harry and the other claimants prevail, the judge will use it to determine the amount of damages (damages in dollars) MGN may be required to pay in subsequent cases involving other celebrities.
