Meta Youth Safety Proceedings

A Landmark New Mexico Judgment Involving Meta Platforms

In August 2026, a New Mexico state court ordered Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, to pay $567 million into a state fund for teen mental-health prevention and treatment. This followed an earlier $375 million jury award arising from New Mexico's consumer-protection claims concerning the safety of Meta's platforms for users.
