Former king of Spain Juan Carlos cannot face harassment claim in UK

Juan Carlos, the former king of Spain, cannot have a claim of harassment brought against him by a former lover, a British court has ruled.

Danish businesswoman Corinna zu Sayn-Wittgenstein, a 58-year-old resident of England, sued Juan Carlos in 2020, alleging that he had caused her ?great mental pain?? by spying on and harassing her.

A High Court judge had previously agreed that there were grounds for the claim against 85-year-old Juan Carlos, but Mrs Justice Rowena Collins Rice on Friday ruled that the London court lacks jurisdiction in the case because the defendant has the right to be tried in his own country.

?I was shown no authority coming anywhere near supporting an assumption of English jurisdiction over a foreign-domiciled defendant in such circumstances,? Judge Collins Rice ruled.
