Rebel Wilson Case Raised In Geoffrey Rush Defamation Appeal
Two of Australia's biggest celebrity defamation cases are set to collide in court, as lawyers for the Daily Telegraph invoke a key ruling in Rebel Wilson's defamation win in their appeal against Geoffrey Rush's $2.9 million victory.
But the case is likely to continue for some months, with the Telegraph launching an appeal against Wigney's decision on a number of grounds, including that the judge's conduct gave rise to an apprehension of bias. This part of Dixon's decision was not overturned on appeal, and the precedent was adopted by Wigney as he awarded Rush $850,000.
