Zoom Mosley taking legal proceedings

A London High Court judge has cleared the path for Max Mosley, the FIA President, to sue a British tabloid newspaper for 'exemplary' as well as conventional compensatory damages.

Lawyers for the newspaper, the News of the World, were arguing that the exemplary - or punitive - damages be struck from Mosley's breach of privacy case, The Times newspaper reports.

In late March this year, the News of the World reported that Mosley engaged in alleged Nazi-themed sex acts with five prostitutes.

The trial begins next week.
