Prince Harry's legal battle against British tabloid publishers continues, as his lawyer has asked a judge to order the publisher of the Daily Mirror to pay nearly 2 million pounds ($2.5 million) for a portion of the legal fees incurred in proving that his privacy was invaded by phone hacking and unlawful methods used to gather information about him.
Last month, Prince Harry was awarded 140,000 pounds ($178,000) in damages after the judge found that phone hacking was 'widespread and habitual' at Mirror Group Newspapers, with executives at the newspapers covering it up. While the sum awarded was significantly lower than what he sought, it marked a significant victory in his ongoing fight against the British media. This case against the Daily Mirror is just one of several he has pending against tabloid publishers, as he takes a stand against the invasion of his privacy.
