Interestingly, the court also dismissed a false light invasion of privacy cause of action, which would normally not require proof of injury to reputation.-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 17, 2004 3:46 PM To: Law & Religion issues for Law Academics Subject: not defamatory to call Jew a believer in Jesus May 17, 2004 According to a story in the current issue of The Forward, Florida circuit court judge Catherin Brunson dismissed a libel case brought by a Jewish woman against Jews for Jesus. The plaintiff alleged that the organization had published an announcement that the plaintiff had tearfully accepted the beliefs of Jews for Jesus as her husband lay dying, presumably his deathbed request. The court dismissed the suit on the ground that it was not defamatory to label someone a believer in Jesus or a Christian.
