The illustrator Ola Schubert is judged to pay over two and a half million SEK in legal costs.
- Obviously it's a pain, but I don't want to make a statement now, I have to go through the sentence first. Me and my lawyer are reading it right now, ”says Ola Schubert to TT.
The brawl began in 2017 when Ola Schubert and a colleague wanted to negotiate an agreement on compensation. Schubert had worked for Hatten since 2005, both as an employee and freelance.
What happened next, the sentences fall apart. Schubert believes, among other things, that Hatten refused to provide supporting documents for the compensation and removed his name from a new book.
The publisher's CEO Anneli Tisell, for her part, claims that Schubert suddenly claimed copyright to the characters, among other things by trying to stop a "Babblarna" musical.
The Labor Court ruling is unanimous.
According to Law & Agreement, Schubert has funded grassroots funding to cover the costs of the trial.
