A New Jersey teenager dismissed her claims against Meta, Google and Snap seven weeks before an October California bellwether trial, according to her lawyer and the companies. The three defendants said no payment was made in connection with the dismissal; TikTok had already settled its portion of the case. It is the second bellwether plaintiff to withdraw shortly before trial. Two similar cases remain scheduled for October, while thousands of individual claims continue in California state court and parallel federal litigation.
