LONDON – Actor Jude Law is taking a lead role in a court battle over the wide-ranging spying campaign mounted by a British tabloid newspaper.
Law was one of many people allegedly targeted by the scandal-hungry News of The World, which listened in on voicemails to get its scoops.
Law was named Friday in one of four test cases to be considered by Justice Geoffrey Vos at Britain's High Court next year.
Vos says that the cases will help him set a range of damages to award people targeted by the News of The World — the biggest-selling Sunday tabloid newspaper — enabling other cases to be resolved without going to court.
The News of the World is currently facing about 20 lawsuits from alleged hacking victims, although more are expected.

Lindsay Lohan (pronounced /ˈloʊ.ən/;[1] born July 2, 1986)[2] is an American actress, pop singer and model. She began her career as a child fashion model before making her motion picture debut in Disney's 1998 remake of The Parent Trap at the age of 11. Lohan gained further fame between 2003 and 2005 with leading roles in the films Freaky Friday, Mean Girls and Herbie: Fully Loaded, subsequently appearing in independent films including Robert Altman's A Prairie Home Companion and Emilio Estevez's Bobby.
Her career was interrupted in 2007 as two driving under the influence (DUI) incidents and three visits to rehabilitation facilities led to the loss of several movie deals. Resuming her career, she guest starred in the TV series Ugly Betty in 2008, starred in the 2009 comedy Labor Pains, and appeared in Robert Rodriguez's Machete in 2010. Lohan launched a second career in pop music in 2004 with the album Speak and followed up with A Little More Personal (Raw) in 2005. She has attracted significant publicity, particularly surrounding her personal life.
