Google reaches tentative settlement in US Play Store lawsuit

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Sept 6 (Reuters) - Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google on Tuesday tentatively settled a class action suit alleging that its U.S.

Play Store had violated U.S. federal antitrust rules by overcharging customers, according to a court filing.

Parties to the settlement, including lawyers representing the attorney general for Utah which is leading the group of states, asked that a trial scheduled for Nov. 6 be canceled.

Lawyers for the consumer plaintiffs declined to comment on the proposed settlement, while a lawyer for plaintiffs that include the states and the District of Columbia did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Google is facing similar lawsuits which allege that it has generated enormous profit margins from its Play Store by engaging in illegal tactics to preserve monopolies in selling Android apps and in-app goods.

Epic Games, which has brought such a claim, is not a party to the proposed Google Play settlement, founder and CEO Tim Sweeney said in a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
