Summary
A DeSoto County class action accuses xAI of subjecting Southaven residents to near-constant noise, vibrations and other nuisance harms that interfere with use of their property.
The suit says conditions worsened after xAI began operating at 2875 Stanton Road South in 2025, with gas-powered turbines at the site rising from 3 to 57.
Residents say the turbine noise sounds like jet engines and keeps them from sleeping at night.
The case adds to xAI's legal pressure in the area after the Southern Environmental Law Center and Earthjustice filed a separate lawsuit earlier this year alleging the Southaven facility violates the Clean Air Act.
