June 23 (Reuters) - Google's YouTube has settled with a minor who claimed the platform caused mental health harms, the plaintiff’s lawyers said, ahead of a second California trial over claims the design of social media sites has fueled a youth mental health crisis.

The terms of the settlement of the state court lawsuit were confidential, the lawyers said on Tuesday.

Google spokesperson José Castañeda said in a statement that the lawsuit had been amicably resolved and "our focus remains on building age-appropriate products and parental controls that deliver on that promise.”
