Mahkamah Rayuan mengekalkan keputusan Mahkamah Tinggi memerintahkan Razman Zakaria membayar ganti rugi RM250,000 kepada bekas ketua menteri Pulau Pinang itu.
Pada 14 Mac 2022, Mahkamah Tinggi Pulau Pinang membenarkan tuntutan Lim Guan Eng dan memerintahkan Razman Zakaria membayarnya ganti rugi am RM150,000 dan ganti rugi teruk RM100,000.
Hakim Nantha Balan yang menyampaikan keputusan sebulat suara mahkamah, berkata catatan Facebook yang dibaca secara pantas atau sekali pandang oleh pembaca, memfitnah Lim dengan mencadangkan, menuduh atau menyatakan Lim antitudung, yang dalam konteks Malaysia berunsur fitnah terhadap Lim. Nantha Balan berkata, mahkamah juga mendapati tiada merit berhubung hujahan peguam Norazli Nordin yang mewakili Razman bahawa penerbitan hantaran itu tidak dibuktikan kerana tiada bukti bebas bahawa mana-mana pihak ketiga mempunyai akses kepada akaun Facebook itu.
Dalam pernyataan tuntutannya, Lim berkata, perkataan digunakan dalam hantaran Razman daripada sumber tidak sahih dan bertujuan mencemarkan nama, reputasinya serta menggambarkannya pemimpin tidak menghormati Islam dan budaya Melayu.
