Hard blow for Dany Boon. After being the victim of a scam for more than 6 million euros, the 56-year-old actor has just been sentenced for dismissal ” abusive, brutal and vexatious “, as reported by our colleagues from L’Informé. In 2013, the director of “Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis” had hired Laurent Storch, one of his most faithful friends, as development director of the performing arts company Les Productions du Chicon. In order to take office in the best conditions and fulfill his role, the latter would have chosen to drop everything to follow Dany Boon in his project. In particular, he would have drawn a line under a position of director of productions at TF1.
Unfortunately, not everything went according to plan and a few years later, the shareholders of the company report to the director that the company is facing enormous financial difficulties. The following year, Laurent Storch was summoned and then dismissed for economic reasons. A dismissal that will put an end to the friendship between the two men. The development director of Productions du Chicon is claiming 360,000 euros in damages from Dany Boon as well as numerous unpaid overtime hours. Rejected in 2019, he decides to appeal.
110,000 euros in damages
According to information from L’Informé, the latter would have finally won his case. In fact, the acolyte of Kad Merad would have been ordered to pay the sum of 110,000 euros in damages for dismissal ” abusive, brutal and vexatious “. A nice little jackpot which is still three times lower than what his former friend demanded of him in the first instance. Leaving this betrayal behind him, Laurent Storch is now a consultant and lecturer. He would also have been a columnist and host on Vivre FM.
