Great video. It’s interesting that you don’t have to be named but simply identified . I assume that referring to my ex wife without legally naming her but simply through association with me can lead to a case of defamation??

[@sonpollo8995]

what happens if defamatory statements are discovered during discovery after the time limit?

Wondering whether today’s (5th June 2021) hatchet job by the herald sun on a doctor in Melbourne would be a good defamation case.
The implication being that he wasn’t helping his patients when scientific evidence suggests he may be.
