Let's start from a distance, but we'll try to be brief (we've already written extensively here): Art. 152 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation clearly divides the burden of proof between the parties.
The plaintiff must prove that the information is defamatory in essence, and that this information was distributed by the defendant (that the plaintiff addresses the lawsuit at the address - Oil, but as it is);.
The defendant must prove that the information distributed by him is true.
Why was the hearing in the Fronzensky court important today in Grobnik's lawsuit against Mironova? And what is even more important?
It was important that at the last hearing the court decided that it did not have enough information to determine unequivocally that Mironova herself had distributed the information. Because of this, in September they did not even approach the legal linguistic test, which was already paid for by the plaintiff. In the months of October-November, we spent many, many hours on the case with evidence that the claim was sent to the address = that the old channel was managed by Mironova herself, and not by enemies, aliens and other parties who hacked into her account (as the dreamer herself claims, by the way, together with the government services - they were also "hacked").
From the outside, everything seems obvious, but judges have their own role - to evaluate not what seems obvious to someone, but what the parties have been able to prove. We treat this work with respect. That's why we do ours carefully. The accused is lying that she did not host the channel - one should not mock her, but prove that she did.
In addition to the results of our work contained in the case materials, the parties today became familiar with Roskomandzor's response. We previously appealed to the court to send a request to RNK who, if at all, submitted a request for registration to RKN for Mironova's old Telegram channel, which previously had the username Mironnova, and now, as a result of a leap forward with chaotic name changes, changed to mursilki_ltd. And which the defendant in court denies in every possible respect. RNA sent a response to the court. Who do you think made such a request to RKN?
