A California appeals court just ruled that Amazon is legally liable for defective products sold on its site by third parties
A worker assembles a box for delivery at the Amazon fulfillment center in Baltimore, Maryland, US, April 30, 2019.that Amazon is legally liable for defective products sold on its site by third parties.
The decision overturned an earlier ruling from a trial court in favor of Amazon's motion for a summary judgment, though the company can still appeal to the state's Supreme Court. Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment. But the court disagreed, finding that Amazon played such an outsized role in the transaction that it bore the responsibility for the defective battery.
The court also didn't buy Amazon's statement that it should be protected under section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, which shields internet companies from legal repercussions for content published by third parties on their sites.
