Geoffrey Vos: Last News

to the Telegraph, judges rejected the outlet’s claim on Friday, saying there were “exceptional” circumstances for the will hearing to be done privately.Court judges Sir Geoffrey Vos, Dame Victoria Sharp and Lady Justice King said that the press could not know about the meeting “without risking the media storm that was feared.”“It is true that the law applies equally to the Royal Family, but that does not mean that the law produces the same outcomes in all situations,” the judges said on July 29. “These circumstances are, as we have said, exceptional.”“The [will] hearing was at a hugely sensitive time for the Sovereign and her family, and those interests would not have been protected if there had been protracted hearings reported in the press rather than a single occasion on which full reasons for what had been decided were published,” the judges said in their ruling.In the United Kingdom, a will is usually kept available as public record.
