RettsNorges redaktør dømt i varslersak

Luxembourgdomstolen, med dommer Frédéric Mersch i spissen, dømte paret til å fjerne artikkelen; Corruption in Luxembourg – Part I og til å betale € 25.000,- (US $ 32,700,- eller ca NOK 200.000,-) i tvangsmulkt for hver dag denne artikkelen blir stående på nettstedet rettsnorge. Dommen falt en gang i mai 2012, og artikkelen har følgelig stått i over 400 dager etter at dommen falt. La meg med en gang si at min samboer ikke har noe med publisering på RettsNorge™ å gjøre.

The verdict fell sometime in May 2012, which means that the article has been online (continuously published) for 400 days since Mersch handed down his judgement.
