U.S. District Judge Amit P. Mehta has handed down his long-anticipated decision in the remedies phase of the Justice Department’s landmark antitrust case against Google, a ruling that could stand among the most consequential in modern antitrust jurisprudence. In a prior ruling, Judge Mehta found that Google’s agreements with web browser companies and Android manufacturers to pre-set its search engine illegally suppressed competition. While he declined to impose a structural breakup, the Justice Department is emphasizing the significance of the relief he did order, underscoring the importance of closely assessing the measures imposed.
