The JPML will hear oral arguments this week on whether all Onewheel lawsuits filed in federal courts nationwide should be consolidated before one judge for coordinated pretrial proceedings.
A Onewheel lawsuit claims a man suffered a broken wrist and road rash when the device pitched him suddenly onto the pavement due to its defective design.
The Onewheel class action lawsuit calls for Future Motion to compensate anyone who bought the defective electric skateboards before the September 29 recall.
Next month, a panel of federal judges will consider whether to consolidate all lawsuits over Onewheel accidents before one federal judge for coordinated pretrial proceedings.
All Onewheel electric skateboards are being recalled due to a "pushback" feature which has been linked to severe rider injuries and deaths.
