Summary

The Court vacated the Ninth Circuit’s judgment and remanded the case for lower courts to determine whether the named plaintiffs have Article III standing under the Stored Communications Act in light of Spokeo, without deciding the fairness of the cy pres settlement. Justice Thomas, dissenting, argued the plaintiffs do have standing and the settlement should be reversed.
