    Rule on De Souza

    Gallery
    Description

    The deliberate and wilful publication in a newspaper of false and fabricated material concerning a trial had in Court, calculated to hold the Court or the Judge thereof up to odium or ridicule, amounts to an undue interference with the administration of justice and an obstruction to public justice, and is hence a contempt of Court; and so is the publication of a charge attributing to the Judge conduct akin to bullying the jury.
