Civil Code for Libel (DE & NY)

[SteyrM40]

What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? DELAWARE & NEW YORK

Hello,

I am looking for state codes regarding libel for the states of Delaware and New York. I have browsed the respective state statute websites, but cannot seem to come across any codes regarding libel.

As an example, Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code, Chapter 73 (http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/statutes/cp.toc.htm) specifically defines the elements of libel.

Could anyone point me to some specific libel codes (number) for DE and NY?

Thanks!

Don't know these off the top of my head, lol, and not all statutes are on line yet.

The BASIC elements for defamation are the same in every state.

I read somewhere that Delaware does not look favorably on defamation actions if that helps you any!

Be careful about taking any information off of the site of a law firm. I repeatedly see incorrect listings of the elements of defamation claims on such sites. Also take care to find the correct SOL for each state.

And of course this is comming from a lawyer basher.

I'm not familiar with your state codes, but I can get them.

Mrs. Kravitz, I just cannot subject all of the readers of these forums to an argument with you in the middle of every thread I post in.

The only other thing I can think to of, is to follow your tattletale lead. I will keep copies of all of these unprovoked personal attacks from you and when I have a fairly good selection I’ll send them in.

If no one sees fit to do something about such behavior, I will assume the management of this site doesn’t care WHAT goes on in these threads and I’ll resume responding to each and every unprovoked attack from you, no matter where or when.

I’m at a loss for a better idea. I have asked you repeatedly to live and let live so I can do the same for you. If you care anything about the comfort of others on this site, you will cease starting personal battles in the middle of every thread.
