Anti-Monopoly Lawsuit Against Live Nation Continues As States Press On With Case

Dozens of states will continue their fight against Live Nation’s alleged concert industry monopoly on Monday, following a brief hearing that saw most plaintiffs withdraw their motion for a mistrial and hire new outside counsel to lead their trial team. The Justice Department had previously announced its settlement with the company, but 40 state and district attorney general plaintiffs remain in court, determined to see the case through. With no further details on what can be expected from Monday’s proceedings, the outcome of this ongoing battle between Live Nation and the states remains uncertain.
