Hot product: Microsoft has sold tens of millions of Xbox 360 consoles since introducing them in 2005.

WASHINGTON: US Supreme Court justices expressed support on Tuesday for Microsoft Corp’s bid to fend off class action claims by Xbox 360 owners who say the videogame console gouges discs because of a design defect.

Microsoft told the court in oral arguments that the San Francisco-based 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals' 2015 ruling allowing console owners to appeal the dismissal of their class action lawsuit was unfair to defendants.
