A celebrity who wants to keep his name out of a tabloid newspaper story about alleged extra-marital activities is waiting to hear whether he has won a Supreme Court fight.
Five Supreme Court justices are scheduled to deliver a ruling on Thursday after analysing the latest around of the man's dispute with journalists at The Sun on Sunday at a hearing in London in April.The man - identified at court hearings only as PJS - asked the Supreme Court to consider the case after losing a fight in the Court of Appeal.
Three Court of Appeal judges ruled in April that an injunction barring The Sun on Sunday from naming the man should be lifted.
Sun on Sunday editors want to publish an account of the man's alleged extra-marital activities.
But the man had argued that he had a privacy right and took legal action.
The newspaper won the first round of the fight in January when a High Court judge refused to impose an injunction barring publication.
But the man appealed - and two appeal court judges ruled in his favor
