Jury clears Boeing in 737 MAX fraud lawsuit
LOT sought $153 million over alleged concealment of 737 MAX flight-control changes, but jurors found Boeing not guilty after a three-hour deliberation.
- On Friday, a jury in Seattle District Court found Boeing not guilty of fraud regarding 737 MAX jets sold to LOT Polish Airlines, concluding a two-week trial.
- LOT Polish Airlines had accused Boeing of withholding critical MCAS flight-control system details, arguing this secrecy contributed to 2018 and 2019 crashes while seeking $153 million in damages.
- "We are gratified by the jury's verdict in our favor," a Boeing spokesperson said, calling the ruling a major legal victory as the company navigates MAX crisis fallout.
- LOT acknowledged the outcome but signaled further legal action may follow, stating the process "may not yet be concluded" and leaving open the possibility of an appeal.
- Separately, Boeing secured a deal with China earlier this month for 200 aircraft, with President Donald Trump indicating the agreement could eventually grow to as many as 750 jets.
