Hall comments on Supreme Court decision: "I have never intended to harm any legitimate business interests through my work and have always remained genuinely open to reconciliation with all those who may feel aggrieved by my campaigning style, to put an end once and for all to this continuing irrational cycle of litigation against me and my colleagues."
Andy Hall faced a series of defamation charges after contributing to a 2012 report on labour rights concerns at a Natural Fruit factory in Thailand.
The pineapple company Natural Fruit dropped on Wednesday 28 October a $9.6 million civil defamation case against a British human rights activist who had alleged abuse of migrant workers in the kingdom's fruit industry.
