| Internet Party leader Kim Dotcom is facing a new lawsuit in the United States from six Hollywood film studios.
They claim in their suit the Megaupload founder "facilitated, encouraged, and profited" from illegal file-sharing on the site.
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) filed the suit on behalf of the studios this morning (NZ time).
The lawsuit was filed by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, Disney Enterprises, Paramount Pictures Corporation, Universal City Studios Productions, Columbia Pictures Industries, and Warner Bros Entertainment in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.
The US Government is already seeking to extradite Dotcom to face charges of copyright conspiracy, racketeering and money-laundering allegedly carried out by his file-sharing company, Megaupload.
Dotcom is specifically named in the suit, under his most famous name as well as Kim Schmitz and Kim Tim Jim Vestor.
