    I'm starting a new project. I would like to ask if any one knows of past cases brought by the member(s) or exmember(s) against the WTBTS. Not looking for Ohio type "freedom of speech" cases. More of civil liability cases.

    I'm curios as to whether or not, plantiff legal counselors used the WT and Awake articles against the WTBTS in these cases. Espeacially concerning "Theocratic Warefare" and the WTBTS definition of a "lie". I wonder if they used it in arguments against the credibility of the WTBTS. Civil court is much more liberal in evidence presentation.

    Heck, if the WTBTS doesn't feel that the State, Court, Plantiff and Jury are "entitled" to the truth...could such information be usefull in showing the lack of the WTBTS credibility. Has this information been utilized in such a manner?

    Thanx in advance for replies.

    there was a case in Greece where Witnesses were caught spying illegally on other Jehovah's Witnesses or former JW's...something about a gray van and the memorial. The Watchtower lost.
