SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 6 – The National Football
League has been sued by a man
in Australia, aiming to form a
class action for the NFL's
GamePass crashing during the
Super Bowl between the Kansas
City Chiefs and the San
Fransisco 49ers.
The
complaint states that "the
live stream crashed and
displayed an error message."
Later, the NFL
offered subscribers $10
payments, in local currency.
But the complaint calls the
Super Bowl live a
non-replaceable
good.
The case has been
assigned to U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Paul A. Engelmayer, and Inner
City Press is covering
it.
On September 3
the NFL's lawyers filed motion
for a stay pending their
motion to dismiss.
The case is Gill
v. National Football League,
et al., 21-cv-1032
(Engelmayer)
