Martin and Eve Hibbert, who were left with severe disabilities after the 2017 blast, are suing Richard D Hall for defamation and harassment after he tracked down Eve and other survivors to see if they were lying about their injuries. It's the first time such action has been launched against a conspiracy theorist in the UK.
Conclusion
39. For these reasons, I find that the defendant has not discharged the evidential burden which rests on him. He has no real prospect, indeed no prospect at all, of success on the Issues and I will resolve them in the claimants’ favour.
40. The defendant’s applications for third party disclosure are also dismissed.
41. I will list the case for a further hearing to decide consequential orders, costs and directions to take the claim forward to a final determination. I invite the parties to submit a draft order reflecting the outcome of this hearing and a draft order for directions for future conduct.

I like Richard's style- I don't know if he still has his bunny, but he used to have it sit with him during some of the shows. Too bad he's been pummeled by courts. s&f
