Former News of the World editor Andy Coulson has today won an appeal against News Group Newspapers.

The ruling means that the group has to pay Coulson’s legal costs.

Coulson went to court because he said the company "must pay the professional costs and expenses properly incurred" by him "in defending allegations of criminal conduct" during his time at the business.

Earlier in the year the High Court ruled that News Group Newspapers did not have to pay his legal costs.
