publishers 5articles 5first reported 24 Sep, 16:45 UTCdeveloping since 24 Sep · 3 editions

A judge has delayed resolution of a settlement involving Paramount’s merger, granting a last-ditch effort to challenge or reconsider the agreement. Forbes reported that the matter will not be resolved until at least next week as the judge questions the settlement.

The dispute involves California and has drawn scrutiny of state Attorney General Rob Bonta. The Hollywood Reporter characterized California as having been willing to concede to Paramount, while the San Francisco Standard linked the episode to a difficult week for Bonta and the possibility of further setbacks.
