Felipe Neto is sentenced for the court

Felipe Neto influencer was sentenced by the court to pay compensation for an amount of $ 10,000 and divide the profits made with videos relating to the song “Family Canarinho”. The decision occurred after proof of the use of the image of a minor without adequate legal authorization.

The case dates back to a recording made in 2018, when the young man was still a teenager. According to the complaint, the boy lost a whole day of lessons to participate in the production and the parents learned of their son only after the publication of the content on YouTube. The video, made by alluding to the World Cup, has even accumulated over 12.7 million views.

As stated in the cause, Felipe Neto’s defense said that there were no irregularities, stating that the boy’s father would have had an authorized participation verbally. However, the Court did not support the topic, since, according to the Brazilian law, the use of the image of minors in audiovisual productions requires compliance with the well -defined legal phases.

According to the explanations of the lawyers Gabriela Biscotto and Fernanda Coelho, from CQS/FV Advogados, “under 16 they need a judicial license to participate in productions such as clips and films”. In addition, a term signed by legal guardians authorize the use of the image is required.

“Recordings can only start after obtaining authorization, under the sanction of the sanctions provided in the statute of children and adolescents,” the experts said. They also explain that permission aims to ensure that the participation of the minor does not compromise his physical, emotional and school well -being.

Also according to lawyers, it is up to producers to formalize the judicial request for the participation of children or adolescents in their content. “The judiciary evaluates even if there is a compatibility between the recordings and school commitments of minors, always giving priority to educational development,” they said.
