This is soooo weird. I just had to read this case at work this morning and summarize it. I'll check out this article and let you know in a couple minutes...

The gist with the Schreiber v. Mulroney case was basically that Schreiber said Mulroney had promised him $300,000 in an oral contract while he was still Prime Minister. The courts basically said that was a lie (the part about the contract being made while he was PM) and that Schreiber was trying to drag Mulroney's name through the mud.

Ok, let me check out this article - I'll get back to you.
