The beginning of summer of 2016 is marked by a new significant courtroom victory of Linnikov & Partners. The case regarded the complicated and sensitive matter of protection of honor, dignity and business reputation of a citizen. In 2015 slanderous information about a client of Linnikov & Partners several times appeared in a popular news show on one of the major federal television networks.
In course of a year the lead counsel Leonid Karpov and his colleagues guided by Alexander Linnikov fought with the seasoned lawyers of the TV channel in the court of first instance and the Moscow Regional Court. The case culminated in Leonid’s decisive victory based on the uncontested demonstration of slanderous nature of the news reports and solid proof of the fact of public distribution of libelous materials.
