AN ACT TO AMEND THE LAW RESPECTING DEFAMATORY WORDS AND LIBEL
[DEF 15] 15 Justification
In an action for defamation in respect of words containing 2 or more distinct charges against the plaintiff, a defence of justification shall not fail by reason only that the truth of every charge is not proved if the words not proved to be true do not materially injure the plaintiff’s reputation having regard to the truth of the remaining charges.
