No details of the photos have been made public but newspapers
have speculated they include images of the Duchess, Kate
Middleton, her husband Prince William and the couple's children
Prince George and Princess Charlotte, who are currently touring
Canada.
The injunction obtained at the High Court by Pippa Middleton,
33, and her fiance James Matthews, 40, blocks publication of the
photos.
"The evidence points toward its having been a flagrant and
dishonest act which has caused the claimant some considerable
distress," said Middleton's lawyer, Adam Wolanski.
Neither Middleton nor Matthews were in court.
Website designer Nathan Wyatt, 35, of Wellingborough, in the
county of Northamptonshire in central England, has been arrested
and bailed on suspicion of a Computer Misuse Act offence in
connection with the case.
He has been ordered to return to a south London police station
in November.
