Harry's presence at the High Court in London is a sign of the importance he attaches to the case, one of several lawsuits the Duke of Sussex has brought against the media.
The case alleges Associated Newspapers Ltd., which publishes titles including the Daily Mail, commissioned the "breaking and entry into private property," engaging in unlawful acts that included hiring private investigators to bug homes and cars and record private phone conversations.
"It would be surprising indeed for any reasonably informed member of the public, let alone a figure in the public eye, to have been unaware of these matters," attorney Adrian Beltrami said in writing. In the inquiry's 2012 report, Lord Justice Brian Leveson said "outrageous" behavior by some in the press had "wreaked havoc with the lives of innocent people whose rights and liberties have been disdained."
