Well, it was a settlement, so they weren't "held liable" (although the news articles I'm seeing are erroneously using that language).
But they did get screwed by the Connecticut courts and then the Supreme Court refusing to hear the appeal. The case should have been thrown out at its inception - it was clearly barred by the PLCAA and if the case was heard anywhere other than Connecticut state courts it probably would have been.
