A claimant filed a case against two defendants before the court. He requested the court to order the two defendants to pay temporary compensation of 5001 Dinars. He said that the defendants had published an insulting article against him and that he was damaged.

The court dismissed the case.

The claimant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court dismissed the appealed ruling and ruled that the defendants should pay the claimant 1000 Dinars.

The defendants appealed the ruling before the court of cassation. They said in their grounds of appeal that the appealed ruling had erred in the application of law. They said that the details included in the articles were correct. They said that the claimant himself did not deny these details.
