These procedural orders do not alter Meta's litigation exposure or near-term stock outlook. Monitor for substantive rulings on class certification or summary judgment in the AI Glasses case, and for claim-construction or summary-judgment outcomes in the copyright cases, which could carry material risk.

Executive Summary
Two procedural court orders in separate Meta cases were issued on July 28, 2026. One is a discovery scheduling order in the consolidated copyright infringement litigation (Kadrey, Entrepreneur Media, Chicken Soup for the Soul, etc.), setting a status hearing for August 5. The other is the court's adoption of a protocol for common benefit work and expenses in the In re Meta AI Glasses consumer class action. Neither order adjudicates liability, damages, or injunctive relief; both are routine case-management steps with no immediate financial impact.
