Court Grants Summary Judgment For Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. In Class Action Antitrust Litigation
Tuesday, 27 Mar 2012 02:53pm EDT 

Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. announced that it was recently granted summary judgment in the first two cases that are part of the Live Concert Antitrust Litigation, a set of class action lawsuits originally commenced in 2002 and later consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. While the order relates specifically to those two cases, Live Nation fully anticipates that the result ultimately will be applied to the remaining cases as well, effectively ending the litigation. The allegations in the complaints relate exclusively to the period from 2001 to 2005, during which much of the business that is now Live Nation Entertainment was then the live entertainment division of Clear Channel Communications. In issuing summary judgment in the Los Angeles and Denver cases, the court invalidated key elements of the plaintiffs' expert testimony, effectively rejecting allegations that Live Nation had harmed consumers or engaged in anti-competitive behavior.  Full Article
