Case status
Where we currently stand against Mojang, and how we got here.
Right now
Every qualified participant has been notified, and has to confirm to the court by 25 September 2026
Given that the court's own notices were poorly handled, we've emailed every qualified participant directly from updates@bulk.lawsuit.gg, where anyone who wants to be covered by the class action has to confirm that in writing to the court no later than the 25th of September 2026. Beyond that we are still waiting on a formal decision on class certification, where no further procedural reason the suit wouldn't qualify has come up so far.

If you are a participant, check your emails
Confirm to the court by
The court has finalized the notice to the group participants and has begun sending it out by email, where some of you will already have received it. In short, you have to explicitly reply to the court to say that you are in fact a participant, by sending in the form on page 3 of the notice (in English).
A group member who has not confirmed that in writing within that time is considered to have left the group, and thus does not take part in the proceedings. The notice itself is on the documents page, where it contains both the swedish and english versions in the same pdf.
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.
As of the 18th of August 2026 the court has confirmed that it will be handling the sendoff of the notices to the participants itself, and no further procedural reason the suit wouldn't qualify has come up so far. That said, a formal notice of certification has not been received yet, so this remains the stage we are at.
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
The court is notifying the participantsCurrent
Now
The court has begun sending its notice out to the group participants by email, where everyone who wants to be covered by the class action has to confirm that in writing to the court no later than 25 September 2026. The formal decision on certification has yet to arrive.
Court confirms it will notify the participants
August 2026
The court confirmed that it will be handling the sendoff of the notices to the group participants itself, where they will be sent with an english translation included.
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.
