Prince Harry and one other claimant remain alone among hundreds who have settled lawsuits against News Group Newspapers .

Harry claims News Group journalists and private investigators violated his privacy by using unlawful tactics to dig up dirt on him and his family.

News Group strongly denies the allegations and it says Harry failed to bring his lawsuit within the required six-year limit.

It will be the first case of its kind to go to trial against the publisher since a phone hacking scandal forced Murdoch to close News of the World.

News Group succeeded in getting Harry ’s phone hacking claims thrown out because the judge said he should have been aware of the scandal.

Harry alleged Murdoch , who was chief executive of the company that controlled NGN , was part of the effort to conceal evidence of hacking or had “turned a blind eye” to it.

The judge rejected Harry 's effort to broaden the case to include claims of eavesdropping on his mother, unearthing private information on his wife.
