Prince Harry in court: The royals were also in the dock.

Prince Harry testified before the Supreme Court in London yesterday in the class action “Various parties v Mirror News Group”. At times, one had the feeling that the royal family was sitting in the dock alongside the British press.

Prince Harry’s appearance before a British court was both surreal and mundane as he sat on the witness stand in Courtroom 15 of the Royal Court of Justice in London, rolling through hand truck loads of documents. He and a group of plaintiffs allege that the Mirror News Group, publishers of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror, The People and Sunday People gazettes, used improper means to gather and publish the most private information about him, his family and friends. It involves tapping of land lines and cell phones, false pretenses, sometimes even hacking of medical data.
