路透7月23日 - 联邦法官周四裁定,派拉蒙·斯凯丹斯(Paramount Skydance, PSKY.O)必须暂停其以1,100亿美元收购华纳兄弟探索公司(Warner Bros. Discovery, WBD.O)的交易,暂停期将持续至8月17日。
此举为派拉蒙·Skydance争取了更多时间,使其能在案件审理期间就可能出现的长达数月的暂停期提出异议。该公司表示,如此长时间的延迟将使交易陷入不确定性,并可能使其损失超过10亿美元。
以加利福尼亚州为首的各州联盟已提起诉讼以阻止该交易,称其将损害影视行业的竞争,并伤害影院和有线电视公司。美国编剧工会也提起了单独诉讼,指控该交易将减少对编剧工作的需求。
加利福尼亚州奥克兰市的美国地区法官马丁内斯-奥尔金(Araceli Martínez-Olguín)此前已将该交易暂停至8月3日,原定于该日举行听证会,以决定是否进一步推迟交易的完成。
派拉蒙已申请在8月举行为期三天的听证会,以便在法官决定是否延长暂停期限之前,向其提交该交易有助于促进竞争的证据。
