European SLAPP Contest

May 21, 2021
Back to All Events

Join Coalition Against SLAPP in Europe (CASE) for their inaugural European SLAPP Contest.

"Yes, these days it seems the only thing the rich and powerful in Europe enjoy more than a flamboyant song-and-dance routine is an abusive lawsuit targeting critical speech. Whether you’re a multinational corporation, an unscrupulous politician, or simply a celebrity with a few too many skeletons in their closet, SLAPPs are as popular right now as an ABBA-themed Greek island wedding.

"So if we’re to have a European song contest, isn’t it high time we had a European SLAPP contest?"

When: 21 May 2021, 12pm CET
Where: CASE website

A carefully selected jury of experts and free speech champions will meet to discuss and vote on five different awards. The winners will be announced on CASE's website and Twitter

Awards: 
Corporate Bully of the Year 
SLAAP Politician of the Year 
Litigation Addict
Bully Lawyers of the Year 
International Bully of the Year - People's Choice Award
