Dering V Uris
''Dering v Uris and Others'' was a 1964 English libel suit brought by Polish-born Wladislaw Dering against the American writer Leon Uris. It was described at the time as the first war crimes trial held in Britain. Dering alleged that Uris had libelled him in a footnote in his novel ''Exodus'', which described his participation in medical experiments in Auschwitz concentration camp during the Holocaust. The case was tried in the High Court of Justice before Justice Lawton and a jury between April and May 1964. On 6 May, the jury returned a verdict for Dering, but awarded him contemptuous damages of one halfpenny, the smallest coin in the currency. As a result, Dering became liable for the defendants' legal costs. The trial attracted wide media coverage. In particular, ''The Times'' provided extensive coverage of the case, printing large portions of the testimony presented in court. The novel ''QB VII'' and its 1974 miniseries adaptation are loosely based on this case. Background ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
