Mt. Gox can be sued in the US, in Delaware, where they have a legal presence for FinCen purposes. They can be sued in Japan. The Japan Financial Services Agency has the authority to regulate them. Yet there are no published reports of anything happening.

I suspect that there have been legal actions, and that anyone who files suit is paid off immediately if they sign a nondisclosure agreement.

If you want to sue him on a civil case you need to do in Japan or in Delaware?, but you can start legal proceedings in every country against him because this is obviously international scam / defraud of customer. You can read my thread about this:
