If you’ve tried to get your Ray-Ban Meta or Oakley Meta smart glasses fixed anywhere other than Meta or Luxottica — and hit a wall — you’re not imagining it. A Denver repair shop, Acme Revival Inc., is now suing Luxottica Group S.p.A. and Meta Platforms Inc. in Denver County District Court, Case No. 2026CV033235, claiming the companies are breaking Colorado’s new right-to-repair law by withholding the parts, software and manuals independent shops need. Here’s what that means for you.

Who Are Meta and Luxottica, and Why Are They Being Sued Over Repairs?

Meta designs the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta smart glasses. Luxottica — the world’s largest eyewear maker — builds the physical frames and handles hardware manufacturing under its long-running partnership with Meta. That split matters here: Acme Revival’s suit says both companies control pieces of the repair pipeline, and both are refusing to release them. Between them, they decide whether an independent shop can ever touch a broken pair of AI glasses.

What Is Acme Revival Accusing Them Of?

Colorado’s new right-to-repair law, HB24-1121, took effect January 1, 2026. It requires manufacturers of “digital electronic equipment” — a category that reaches phones, laptops, and now smart glasses — to sell parts, tools, documentation, and diagnostic software to independent repair shops on the same terms they’d offer an authorized dealer. Acme Revival says Meta and Luxottica simply never opened that door.

According to the complaint, filed by attorney Anthony A. Garcia and first reported by Law360, Acme asked for the repair resources the law entitles it to and got nothing usable back. No parts catalog. No service manual. No diagnostic tools. Without those, a $300 hinge repair turns into a $1,000 device replacement — and that’s the whole point of the law Colorado passed.

That gap is the reason this case exists. If a repair shop can’t get parts, the manufacturer becomes the only option — and pricing follows.

Are You Part of This Lawsuit?

Short answer: no one is, because there’s no class to join. This is Acme Revival, Inc. against Meta and Luxottica — one company’s claim, not a group action. You can’t sign up, file a claim, or wait for a check.

What it does affect is anyone trying to get independent repair work done on Meta smart glasses in Colorado, and any other repair shop running into the same wall Acme hit. If this suit succeeds, it could force Meta and Luxottica to open up parts and documentation the same way Apple and other manufacturers have had to in other right-to-repair states.

Are You Covered Outside Colorado?

No — not directly. HB24-1121 is a Colorado statute, and it only reaches digital electronic equipment manufactured, sold, or first used in Colorado on or after July 1, 2021. California, Minnesota, Oregon, and New York have their own right-to-repair laws with different terms and different enforcement mechanisms, so a Meta glasses owner in another state would need to look at that state’s version, if one exists.

If you’re an independent repair provider in Colorado who’s been refused parts, documentation, or software for digital electronics — not just smart glasses — a consumer protection attorney can tell you whether you have a claim of your own before evidence and communications age out of reach.

What Is Acme Revival Asking the Court to Award?

This is not a payout case. Trellis Law’s docket lists the case type as injunctive relief, meaning Acme is primarily asking a judge to order Meta and Luxottica to comply with the law — not asking for a jury to hand over damages. Colorado’s Consumer Protection Act does allow for penalties and attorney’s fees when a deceptive trade practice is proven, but the complaint’s specific damages request, if any, isn’t confirmed on the public record yet.

What Could Acme Revival Receive If It Wins?

An order compelling Meta and Luxottica to release parts, tools, and documentation is the headline ask. Statutory penalties and fee awards are possible under the Consumer Protection Act, but the exact number — like everything this early in a case — depends on how the litigation plays out. No money has changed hands, and none is guaranteed.

What Should Affected Repair Shops and Glasses Owners Do Right Now?

1. There’s no class action here, so there’s nothing to sign up for or file.
2. If you were denied repair parts, software, or documentation for a Meta smart glasses product in Colorado, save the request and the response — emails, order forms, denial letters, all of it.
3. Write down what the refusal cost you: a repair you couldn’t complete, a device you had to replace, a customer you lost.
4. There’s no lead plaintiff deadline to track, since this isn’t structured as a class case.
5. Watch the docket in Denver County District Court, Case No. 2026CV033235, for the defendants’ answer and any scheduling order.
6. If you have your own denial-of-parts story, talk to a consumer protection attorney about whether Colorado’s right-to-repair law gives you a separate claim.

One Thing Worth Knowing Before You Take Sides

Acme Revival isn’t a neutral bystander here. Denver7 Investigates reported that a Jefferson County judge threw out 47 lawsuits Acme had filed against its own repair customers over disputed storage fees — and in a related countersuit, one customer’s attorney called part of the arrangement an “illegal ransom.” None of that makes Meta and Luxottica’s alleged conduct lawful. But it’s fair context if you’re deciding how much weight to put on Acme’s framing of itself as the little guy fighting for repair rights.

When will the Meta and Luxottica right-to-repair case resolve?

 There’s no timeline yet. The case was just filed, and neither company has publicly responded on the docket as of this writing.

Can I file my own claim against Meta or Luxottica instead of relying on Acme’s case? 

Possibly. If you’re a Colorado repair provider or device owner who was independently denied parts or documentation, you may have your own claim under the Consumer Protection Act — a consumer protection attorney can evaluate the specifics.

How will I find out if this case settles or goes to trial?

 Watch the Denver County District Court docket for Case No. 2026CV033235, or follow legal news outlets covering Colorado right-to-repair enforcement.

What specific law does Meta allegedly violate?

 Colorado’s Consumer Right to Repair Digital Electronic Equipment Act, HB24-1121, which took effect January 1, 2026 and makes noncompliance a deceptive trade practice under the state’s Consumer Protection Act.

How much could Acme Revival receive if this case succeeds? 

The suit is built around injunctive relief — a court order forcing compliance — rather than a damages award. Statutory penalties and attorney’s fees are possible under Colorado law, but no specific figure is confirmed.

Does Colorado’s right-to-repair law cover all electronics, or just smart glasses?

 It covers most digital electronic equipment sold or used in Colorado from July 1, 2021 onward — phones, laptops, and household electronics included — with exemptions for items like motor vehicles, medical devices, and game consoles.
