Meta will soon face another high-stakes trial in US
With two convictions and nearly $1 billion in damages already stacked up, Meta will face another trial starting this week about alleged harms to children in a case brought by four US states.
The federal trial, one of the most consequential among a myriad of legal proceedings targeting social networks in the United States, will begin Wednesday with jury selection at a federal court in Oakland, near San Francisco.
Opening statements are expected to start next week on August 18, with the trial lasting for roughly six weeks, followed by a verdict in early October.
