California Judge Rebukes Distribution Company’s July 4 Filing Against Comscore, Stalls Data Sharing Demand

The legal battle between a film distribution and data company and Comscore saw a significant development recently. A California federal judge issued a strong admonishment to the distribution company for the timing of their amended monopolization complaint against the box office analytics giant, Comscore, which was submitted on the Fourth of July. The judge’s scolding was accompanied by the decision that this filing currently nullifies the attempt to require Comscore to continue sharing its data.
