handle is hein.ali/thrdconf0004 and id is 1 raw text is: CONFLICT OF LAWS 3D (DRAFTS) Generally C.A.2, 2021. Cit. generally in ftn. (citing T.D. No. 1, 2020). U.S. Department of Justice official sued newspaper, alleging that defendant published a defamatory declaration made by a Department intern asserting that plaintiff made unwelcome sexual contact with a coworker. The district court granted defendant's motion to dismiss. This court affirmed, holding, inter alia, that plaintiff's claim was barred by the New York fair-report privilege against defamation claims, because defendant was domiciled in New York, and the purportedly defamatory statement originated from New York. The court noted that, while New York had traditionally applied the law of the place of the tort as set forth by the Restatement of Conflict of Laws in resolving conflict-of-laws issues in tort claims, it now followed the modern approach as set forth by the Restatement Second of Conflict of Laws, which examined whether another state had a more significant relationship to the issue or the parties. The court noted that the Restatement Third of Conflict of Laws, which was still in draft form, also followed the modern approach. Kinsey v. New York Times Company, 991 F.3d 171, 177.
