Justice Department Welcomes Decision in New York v. Deutsche Telecom, the T-Mobile/Sprint Merger

02/11/2020 12:00 AM EST

Following the trial in New York v. Deutsche Telekom, Judge Victor Marrero of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has refused a request from a minority of state Attorneys General to block T-Mobile's proposed acquisition of Sprint. In his opinion, Judge Marrero cited the Justice Department's settlement as a key factor, noting that the Justice Department's settlement made Dish "well poised to become a fourth MNO in the market, and its extensive preparations and regulatory remedies indicate that it can sufficiently replace Sprint's competitive impact."
