Law Street Media: Apple Waives Right to Respond to Cert. Petition in RF Radiation High Court Appeal
“Apple has decided not to file a responsive brief in the radiofrequency (RF) radiation case filed by iPhone users who claim that Apple breached state tort and consumer-fraud laws by misrepresenting and failing to disclose the amount of RF radiation emitted by its smartphones. The case arrived at the Supreme Court in November 2022, after the Ninth Circuit issued a published opinion finding the claims preempted.”
“The plaintiffs claimed that Apple iPhones did not comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF radiation emission standards and that the manufacturer failed to disclose the risks associated with overexposure.”
