PROOF - - - The burden of proof in a defamation case is upon the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff has the burden of proof to prove each element of the case to the saisfaction of the judge or the jury. In order to be successful in a defamation lawsuit, you must prove-

The defendant made a false statement of fact. It must be objectively not true plus it must be presented as an actual fact rather than as an opinion.

The statement was published to a third party. This could have occurred in written form, in which case the plaintiff would file a libel case or it could have occurred orally, in which event it would be slander.

The defendant was at fault. If the defamed victim is a private person, the plaintiff must prove the defendant was negligent in determining whether the statement was true or false. If the defamed figure was a public person, the plaintiff must prove actual malice. This means showing the defendant intentionally made a false statement or acted with gross recklessness in determining the truth.

The statement was not privileged. Some types of communications are privileged, or protected. In this event so no defamation claims can arise from them. This includes statements made in judicial proceedings or statements made between married persons. The plaintiff sustained damage. This could include reputational harm or future lost professional opportunities.

It can sometimes can be very difficult to present sufficient evidence to win a defamation case.
