A key TikTok hearing in its fight against the US government’s “sale or ban” law, Coinbase in court to force the SEC to make crypto rules, and Google fighting DOJ antitrust actions on multiple fronts are catalysts to watch in September. In this episode of the Votes and Verdicts podcast, host and Bloomberg Intelligence senior litigation analyst Elliott Stein gathered colleagues to discuss these and other litigation and policy themes. These include trials in the FTC’s challenges to the Kroger-Albertsons and Tapestry-Capri deals, a securities fraud suit against Bausch Health, a trial against Abbott and Reckitt’s Mead Johnson unit over infant formula products, and Robinhood trying to beat class-certification in a customer lawsuit over best execution disclosures. Also discussed were drug-pricing cuts under the Inflation Reduction Act, the impact of Kamala Harris’ policies on the consumer sector and the possibility of the DEA rescheduling marijuana.
