Historically libelant has been an admiralty term ..., but the word has come to mean additionally "one who publishes a libel, a libeler." Libeler (in British English "libeller") is the older and better term for this sense; for it forestalls confusion about what the cause of action is. 2, record 1, English, - libeler
