Statement on behalf of CCC Nuacht regarding The Liberal
Summary
My client CCC.Nuacht Teo agreed settlement terms with Mr Leo Sherlock to resolve a copyright infringement claim over articles written by CCC reporters that were copied and published on TheLiberal.ie without licence or payment. The articles reported on criminal proceedings and were produced by expert court reporters. CCC Nuacht has a history of challenging reporting restrictions to promote public access to court decisions. The settlement requires Mr Sherlock to publish an apology on TheLiberal.ie's main page. The case was adjourned to Ardee District Court on 11 September 2017 for implementation, and CCC Nuacht will not comment further.
