Case status
Where we currently stand against Mojang, and how we got here.
Right now
Awaiting the court's decision on class certification
The filings are in, where the court has preliminarily indicated that there appear to be grounds to proceed as a class action, and we have answered their request for clarifications and are now waiting to hear back.

What "awaiting certification" means
In simple terms, Swedens class action procedure has two stages, where before anyone argues about whether Mojang did anything wrong, the court first has to decide whether this qualifies as a class action at all — whether the group is properly defined, whether the claims can be tried together, whether the procedure fits and so on. That is the hurdle we are currently trying to get through.
It has not been decided yet. In its request for clarifications dated the 23rd of July 2026, the court preliminarily came to the conclusion that there appear to be grounds to proceed as a class action, while raising doubts as to whether it can try certain claims, where we answered those on the 5th of August 2026.
Obviously none of this should be read as a hint at how a judge would eventually rule on the substance of the case, given that these are preliminary questions that came up after going through the filings, nothing more.
Procedural history
Awaiting class certificationCurrent
Now
We are waiting for the court to decide whether the claim meets the conditions to proceed as a class action, where in the meantime we are arguing over who is responsible for contacting the participants.
Court requested clarifications
July 2026
The court preliminarily found that there appear to be grounds to proceed as a class action, while raising doubts as to whether it can try claims 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4, where we sent our response on the 5th of August 2026.
Filings submitted
24 June 2026
We submitted the filings to Nacka tingsrätt, where the case was assigned the number T 5478-26 the following day.
Participation list collected
August 2025 – June 2026
33,561 raw submissions came in, where we then filtered them against the group criteria, ultimately ending up at 2,845 participants.
Settlement attempt failed
October 2025
Mojang denied every allegation & claimed that anything we might bring was too late anyway due to the statue of limitations, aka "we did nothing wrong, and even if we did it's too late for you to do anything about it". As such, our obligation to try resolving it out of court first was fulfilled.
Legal representation secured
May 2025
We contacted every single law firm in swedish jurisdiction that specialised in the relevant fields, where we then narrowed it down to two based on response times, familiarity with the fields in relation to our case, direct experience with "similar" cases and so on, and picked the one best suited to it.
Funding raised
December 2024
The crowdfunding goal was hit in under two days, where the funds were later moved into a swedish bank account opened solely for this case.
Participation
Participation closed on 19 June 2026, where the list of 2,845 participants was sent in to the court and nothing could be added from that point onwards.
If we get through certification, the idea is to demand that Mojang send out a notice to affected users from their own internal databases, where everyone else would then get a chance to join. That obviously depends on both getting certified and the court actually granting the request, so nothing is guaranteed. The FAQ goes into more detail.
