French judge to rule on Mosley video this month

A judge will rule on April 29 as to whether the Max Mosley sex video should be banned from being accessed on French territory.

The embattled FIA President`s efforts to suppress the notorious News of the World footage in the London High Court failed recently, but Mosley last week lodged the same complaint in the French jurisdiction.

Mosley also wants paper copies of the British tabloid newspaper seized in France, and 25,000 euros in damages for each offence.

His lawyer, Philippe Ouakrat, said the video is a “violation of his right to respect for his private life.

“

In terms of privacy, the French legal system is among the most protective that exists, according to information obtained from the Embassy of France in the United States.
