Gunns Law Suit Against The Wilderness Society & Others - June 03, 2008

In December 2004, forestry giant Gunns Ltd sued The Wilderness Society, five of its staff, and 14 other conservation groups and individuals (including Green Members of Parliament, Bob Brown and Peg Putt) in relation to the campaign to protect Tasmania's forests. This is the so-called Gunns 20 case.
