Court of appeal dismisses Guardian challenge over private court hearing in which Philip’s will was sealed
A judge acted correctly when he decided to hold a secret court hearing in which he banned the public from inspecting Prince Philip’s will, the court of appeal has ruled.
Three appeal court judges ruled that the media did not have the right to attend the hearing or to be notified about it, adding that publicity would have compromised the need to preserve the dignity of the Queen and her family’s privacy.
