Abstract
Essential Cases: Public Law provides a bridge between course textbooks and key case judgments. This case document summarizes the facts and decision in Mosely v United Kingdom [2011] ECHR 774, European Court of Human Rights. This case provides an exemplar of the challenges of balancing Article 8 and Article 10 rights under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and Schedule 1 of the Human Rights Act 1998 in the context of press regulation. There is also discussion of the qualified nature of these two rights. The document also includes supporting commentary from author Thomas Webb.
