In Touch

In late 2012, Life & Style and In Touch magazines published headlines indicating Tom Cruise had abandoned his daughter Suri. Most people might dismiss such articles as minority reports. However, Cruise has filed a Complaint in the District Court of California for defamation and invasion of privacy. He’s asking that the publisher of the magazines show him the money, to the tune of over US$50 million. Whether or not this is mission impossible for Cruise remains to be seen, but the case is attracting significant media attention due to an emerging discovery battle between the parties.
