The producers of the UK espionage film Survivor have initiated a handful of BitTorrent copyright lawsuits in the U.S. District Court, District of Oregon.  According to some observers, these may be the first such lawsuits filed in the U.S. Courts.

In Survivor, Milla Jovovich plays a falsely accused Foreign Service Officer who works to unravel a terrorist plot against the U.S. while being pursued through London’s streets and subways.  In a Variety write-up, the reviewer found that the film had “a solid middle section,” despite being hindered by “a generic title and low buzz factor.”

Like many similar lawsuits in the same District Court, the Survivor cases were filed by Salem attorney Carl D. Crowell.  The lawsuits, each against a single Doe party, seek statutory damages pursuant to the Copyright Act, attorney’s fees and costs, and an injunction against further infringement.
