Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín wrote that the plaintiffs — three current Paramount+ subscribers and two prospective subscribers — presented a lack of standing in their suit. She also ruled that the plaintiffs failed to establish “cognizable” economic fallout that would invoke antitrust regulation. However, she has allowed plaintiffs to revise their complaint and refile.
