SCOTUS Denies Comcast's Antitrust Fight Cert Petition

The Supreme Court declined to take up Comcast's petition challenging the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' reversal of a lower court's dismissal of Viamedia antitrust claims about Comcast's control of cable TV advertising interconnects (see 2002260020), in a docket 20-319 denial Monday. SCOTUS said Justice Amy Coney Barrett didn't take part in the petition's consideration or decision. Comcast didn't comment.
