==Background==
[[Evan_Gallagher|Adiêns Glaçâ]] of the [[Political_parties#Historic_Parties|Silver Phoenix Party]] (a merger of the [[Chocolate Orange Party]] and the [[Whigs]] sued the newspaper [[Stotanneu|''Støtanneu'']] for [[libel]]. The newspaper labelled the SPP as a "party of prevaricators", similar to [[Davron]]'s 1994 "Liberal Party". Crucially, the paper accused Glaça of misleading the Cosâ in his application for citizenship in 1996.

According to ''[[Ár Päts]]'', this drawn-out trial was dubbed "the O.J. trial" by [[Art Verbotten]] due to its length. During the case, King Robert, on behalf of his newspaper, claimed that Glaçâ was attempting to "censor" the press.

==Outcome==
The record is unclear as to the outcome of this case. ''Ár Päts'' claims that when SPP member [[Ieremiac'h Ventrutx]] threatened to email-bomb the King and to encourage "College Republicans" to infiltrate Talossa, "[Glaçâ] abandoned the party and his lawsuit, his reputation in rubble."

On the other hand, the [http://talossa.proboards.com/post/119248/thread recollection] of [[Miestrâ Schivâ]] is that "The Uppermost Cort found that (on the precedent of [http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=CASE&court=US&vol=485&page=46 ''Falwell v. Hustler'']) it was impossible to be libelled by a paper with no credibility which no-one took seriously."

More accurate records are needed to determine whether there was in fact a ruling in this case, and what the contents of that ruling were.
