Woman sued for verbal violence

Good stuff - they have been doing it forever !!


"A DEFAMATION expert yesterday warned warring families to watch what they say after a woman who called her in-law a paedophile during a "family feud" was ordered to pay him $30,000 in damages.

Only four people - including the man's son and daughter - heard the remark, which was made during a child access dispute in July last year.

But District Court Judge Judith Gibson, who ordered the payout, said: "The making of an allegation of paedophilia, in the context of a dispute of access and custody, is like pouring oil onto a fire.

"It caused the plaintiff a great deal of anxiety and concern. The fact that a serious defamation was published to persons who are close to the plaintiff does not make it any the less hurtful."..........
