For the second time this year, the Met Police decide to take no further action on claims about Prince Andrew.
Officers reviewed the matter after the Prince’s accuser Virginia Giuffre filed her lawsuit in August claiming she had been sexually assaulted in London in 2001.
Full story on Met Police confirming they will not make any further criminal investigations into the claims made against Prince Andrew (it’s the third time they’ve looked into it). Here 👇
itv.com/news/2021-10-1…
A source close to Prince Andrew responds to the Met Police decision: “It comes as no surprise that the Met Police have confirmed that, having reviewed the sex assault claims against The Duke for a third time, they are taking no further action.”
The Duke of York source adds: “Despite pressure from the media and claims of new evidence, the Met have concluded that the claims are not sufficient to warrant any further investigation. The Duke has always vigorously maintained his innocence and continues to do so.”

Court is underway.
Prince Andrew lawyer, Andrew Brettner has told the New York court that he is "appearing for Prince Andrew, the Duke of York".
The Prince's accuser Virginia Giuffre's is represented by her attorney David Boies.
Virginia Giufree lawyer David Boies told court: We proceeded to serve papers on "Prince Andrew in several ways" pursuant to the Hague Convention including delivering the complaint to the "usual last known address of the Defendent" and sent by Royal Mail.
David Boies: I understand that Prince Andrew is to challenge our service [of papers on him]. We would ask the court to grant an alternative means of service in the interests of moving the lawsuit along.

Yes another High Court hearing today in Meghan v Mail on Sunday case (which she won on privacy grounds recently).
These arguments concern outstanding issues of copyright of Meghan's letter to her father.
A contested issue because her former Palace press secretary had seen a draft
In Meghan's submission, Jason Knauf - former Comms Sec at Kensington Palace - states:
- he "was not an author of the Electronic Draft"
- he "does not own any copyright in the Electronic Draft"
- he "had no wish, and did not consent, to being joined as a party in the proceedings"
Additionally, lawyers for Buckingham Palace have submitted - via the Keeper of the Privy Purse "acting on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen" - that they "do not consider the Crown to be the copyright owner of the Electronic Draft" of Meghan's letter to her father.

The Mail on Sunday has been told it can publish a smaller front page apology than the one Meghan's legal team had demanded. Meghan wanted an apology similar in size and scale to the original story about her letter to her father, Thomas Markle, on the newspaper's front page.
There will a FURTHER hearing to decide the account of profits that the Mail on Sunday should pay Meghan in damages for breaching her privacy by publishing her letter to her father.
The Mail on Sunday must publish its apology to Meghan either this Sunday or the following Sunday depending news on the day.
(There was also much discussion about font size and pixels on Mail Online - but I really won't bore you with that)

NEW: The Duchess of Sussex asks the High Court to order the Mail on Sunday to hand over copies over her private letter to her father Thomas Markle which was the crux of the privacy case she won against the newspaper last month.
itv.com/news/2021-03-0…
Meghan asks Mail on Sunday to publish an apology "on a page no later than page 4" and "in a font and size" no smaller than the original story about her letter to Thomas Markle.
Meghan's lawyers also demand the Mail on Sunday prints "a statement on the front page" which says "the Duchess of Sussex wins her legal case for copyright infringement against Associated Newspapers for articles published in the Mail on Sunday and posted on Mail Online".
