The amount of claims of Russians to NetFlix is estimated at 60 million rubles
- Apr 15
The law office from Moscow continues to issue a collective claim against Netflix for the suspension of work in Russia. However, the prospects to recover from the Stregnation stated amounts of foggy.
We were told about the beginning of the case in a separate publication:
In March, Netflix stopped serving Russians, removed its applications for Russia from Western stores, and also banned the subscription over the paid period.
Moscow lawyers expect to unite the statements of victims and submit to NetFlix to the court. According to them, 20 applications have already been processed, another 100 are under consideration. Clants collection continues, and the amount of the claim, taking into account moral damage, was estimated at 60 million rubles.
However, the prospects to win such money a little. On the one hand, in Russia there is a legal entity representing NetFlix. It is referred to as the Entertainment Online Service LLC and is listed by the subsidiary of the National Media Group, which has previously spent the operator of foreign cutting in Russia.
Funds on his accounts will be found, and one-sided suspension of services violates the Civil Code and the Law "On Consumer Rights Protection". Also, a lawyer will help a general attitude towards the fight against Western companies discriminating users by national sign.
On the other hand, NetFlix announced the suspension of activities in advance and did not interrupt paid subscriptions, but provided services to their owners until the end of the payment period.
The defendant will most likely try to prove in court that it is not related to the decision of Netflix in Russia and should not be responsible for its actions.
There is much more likely the option of a formal victory in the case, but with minimal compensation. Earlier, on cases of such a plan in the field of IT, compensation was awarded in the region of 50 thousand rubles., And on difficult lawsuits with large problems for victims of compensation amounts were several hundred thousand rubles.
The colleagues of the plaintiffs believe that the entire share of Zanayana for the sake of PR-turn, which has already succeeded, because many mentioned, and the amount of payments even in the case of victory is estimated in the amount of 5-10 thousand rubles. For each participant of a collective claim.
Meanwhile, in the Moscow Law Office, this case is called the first step and are going to consider the possibility of complaints about other Western companies later.
Also, domestic producers are trying to confiscate his serials with Russian actors, including "Anna to" with Svetlana Khodchenkova. Two projects from the 4th in the plan have already removed, and they are stuck on the installation.
Process prospects There are: Previously, producers were selected from Disney studios, Sony Pictures rights to new Russian premieres and some past, including "Ampire V", "Buka - Favorite Monster", "Last Bogatyr", "Mr. Nokaut", "Finnik". They were promptly transferred to Russian rollers.
