The Prince Harry and Meghan Markle filed a lawsuit last July 23 against paparazzi for taking illegal pictures of his son Archie while he was at home.
The complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, in Los Angeles. The document mentions that a series of intrusions have occurred that affect the privacy of the child under 14 months of age.
He also mentions that a series of drones have been flying over the couple's residence without their authorization, and that they do not want special treatment but their right to live in peace at home as guaranteed by California law is respected.
Harry and Meghan's attorney told E News !, "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are filing this lawsuit to protect their son's right to privacy in their home."
The aforementioned outlet had access to the document presented by the couple's lawyer, Michael Kump , in which he mentions that a photographer is selling photos of Archie that were allegedly taken in Malibu on a public walk.
Archie has not been in public, much less Malibu, since the family arrived here. It is evident from a description of the photographs being sold, which were taken from activities in the residence's backyard without the Dukes they would notice, "says Kump.
The attorney also noted, "Harry and Meghan currently do not know who violated the law to take these pictures of their son, or who is trying to sell them to the media," so they are seeking permission from the court to hear. the identities of the photographers by means of citations.

Michael Kump assured that what the dukes are looking for is to obtain compensation for the damage caused and to own the rights to the photographs.
"No drone, helicopter, or telephoto lens can take away the right to privacy. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are filing this lawsuit to protect their child's right to privacy in their home without the intrusion of photographers, and to discover and detain those seeking to profit from these illegal actions, "the lawyer told E News! .
Meghan Markle is a strong advocate for her right to privacy. She currently has another active lawsuit against the publisher Associated Newspapers over articles published by The Mail on Sunday newspaper in February last year that included excerpts from a letter she had sent to her father, Thomas Markle .
The Schillings law firm hired by Meghan, to represent her in this case, stated in early May this year, "The Duchess's rights were violated and the legal limits around privacy were crossed. As part of this process, they implemented the extremes in which The Mail on Sunday used distorting, manipulative and dishonest tactics to attack the Duchess of Sussex, who has been fully exposed. "
