Otuo v The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of Britain [2015] EWHC 509 (QB), [2015] All ER (D) 221 (Mar)
The claimant brought a claim against in the defendant in libel. The defendant belatedly issued an application dated 19 June 2014 to strike out the claim on the footing that the claim form had not been issued within the limitation period, so that the claim was time-barred. The claimant sought to utilise s 34 of the Limitation Act 1980 to disapply the limitation period. The Queen’s Bench refused the application.
