Court: Judge wrong to dismiss complaint against Facebook
1 Oct 22:24Key points summarised by AI
The New Hampshire Supreme Court reversed a lower court's dismissal, allowing a cafe owner's lawsuit against Facebook to proceed.
Cafe owner Emmett Soldati sued Facebook after his Teatotaller cafe's Instagram account, used for marketing and LGBTQ+ advocacy, was shut down without warning in 2018.
The court ruled Soldati "sufficiently alleged a claim for breach of contract" under Facebook's Terms of Use and that Facebook's immunity defense under the Communications Decency Act was not evident at this stage.
This decision sends the case back to the lower court, signaling that social media platforms may not have absolute immunity from user claims.
