The Court refused the interim injunction because the high threshold for restraining a responsible news media organisation was not met: publication of a Police investigation into a high-profile school principal was within legitimate public interest, the plaintiff failed to establish an arguable case of offensive invasion of privacy, defamatory or malicious publication, or probable irreparable harm to his employment sufficient to justify prior restraint.
