Event summary

The U.S. District Court of Western Texas has dismissed a consumer class action lawsuit against CrowdStrike brought by airline passengers who claimed flight disruptions due to a software outage. The court ruled that the claims are preempted by the federal Airline Deregulation Act (ADA), which aims to prevent inconsistent state laws governing the airline industry. CrowdStrike's chief legal officer, Cathleen Anderson, expressed gratitude for the court's decision.
