New Mexico trial enters public nuisance phase in Meta child safety case
Meta faces a second phase of litigation in New Mexico state court to determine whether its platforms constitute a public nuisance following a jury finding in March that the company violated state unfair practices law. The state seeks approximately $3.7 billion in abatement costs and injunctive relief requiring substantial changes to Meta's platforms, with the bench trial expected to last three weeks.
