Allstate Insurance had an insurance policy in Young's name, and alleges the Xbox was "unreasonably dangerous" and was, defective, malfunctioned and caused smoke and fire damage in his house.

Allstate alleges Microsoft is responsible for all loss, damage and injury and was negligent in proving an Xbox with defects.

Allstate is demanding Microsoft shell out $250,000 to cover the insurance costs on the house. The case was filed in a circuit court for Prince George's County. An earlier case, linked below, was settled between the Weatherfords and Microsoft last year. µ
