I think that case has much a longer history than Oct 2018.

Firstly there is a principle that you cannot comment on the merits of a case that's before the courts. It's called sub judice.

The term sub judice literally means "under judicial consideration". The sub judice rule is part of the law relating to contempt of court. The rule governs what public statements can be made about ongoing legal proceedings before, principally, the courts.The basis for the sub judice rule is that, in our legal system, it is the role of the courts to deal with legal issues that are before it. The courts' role should not be usurped by others making public statements about how these issues should be dealt with.

The rule applies where court proceedings are ongoing, and through all stages of appeal until the matter is completed*. It may also apply where court proceedings have not yet been started, but are imminent.The rule is not limited to parties in a case or their lawyers. It applies to the public and to statements by public officials.

Secondly, it would always in the annual report as a matter of law as a contingent liability or the auditors would not sign off. It would be an insurance matter as well.

Thirdly, and most importantly..... we won!

* Let's wait and see if the decision holds.
