Federal Judge Dismisses iPhone Battery Lawsuit
Thursday, September 25th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
A U.S. District judge gas dismissed a lawsuit brought against Apple for the limited battery life in the iPhone, without a trial. The judge found that no deception could have occurred because Apple has labeling on the box advising the customer.
Judge Matthew Kennelly granted a summary judgment on September 23 citing the labeling on the iPhone box that says: "Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced by Apple service provider." In his ruling he said, "Under the circumstances, no reasonable jury could find that deception occurred."

Jose Trujillo sued Apple in Illinois court in 2007. He accused Apple of fraud for not advising customers that they may have to replace the battery at some point at a cost of US$86 and sought class-action status. Apple was able to have the case moved to the U.S. District federal court in Chicago.
