Croswell's conviction was upheld, but he didn't suffer any punishment. In 1805, the NY legislature changed their libel law in accordance with how Hamilton had argued the case.
Essentially the NY legislature said that truth was an affirmative defense in most libel cases, breaking with English common law.
Hamilton's view of Libel law is, broadly speaking, the law through out the United States. There are exceptions, so consult an attorney if you are going to defame someone, esp. a non-public figure, with malicious intent.
