On Thursday, Ohio’s Supreme Court ruled that the restaurant and its suppliers were not liable for Berkheimer’s injury, deciding that "boneless" referred to a cooking style

Writing for the Court majority, Justice Joseph T. Deters said, “A diner reading ‘boneless wings’ on a menu would no more believe that the restaurant was warranting the absence of bones in the items than believe that the items were made from chicken wings, just as a person eating ‘chicken fingers’ would know that he had not been served fingers.”

The case was more about the liability of restaurants with damage their food causes and how food safety laws are applied. This is just the sensationalized headline.

Also each state has their own Supreme Court. This is not the Supreme Court you’re thinking about.
