Plaintiffs v Comcast
Anti-Trust Case Against Comcast
In a national antitrust class action pending against Comcast in federal court in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (In re Comcast Corp. Set-Top Cable Television Box Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 2034), Judge Anita B. Brody has appointed Pennsylvania's RodaNast, PC as Lead Counsel.
The case is brought on behalf of people who purchased premium or digital cable services from Comcast. The Comcast Complaints collectively allege that Comcast has a monopoly in areas where it provides cable television services. The complaints further allege that Comcast's premium or digital cable customers have to pay a separate fee to rent a cable box or set-top box to enable customers to view cable TV and that Comcast's actions constitute an unlawful tying arrangement resulting in an impermissible restraint of trade, in violation of both state and federal law.
Judge Brody also appointed Mellon, Webster & Shelly as Liaison Counsel. Appointed Steering Committee members include Bailey & Glasser LLP, Becnel Law Firm, The Bell Law Firm, PLLC, Devereux Murphy LLC, Edgar Law Firm LLC, Foote, Meyers, Mielke & Flowers, LLC, Gustafson Gluek PLLC, Silverman & Fodera, Sweetnam LLC, Wexler Wallace LLP, Whatley Drake & Kallas, LLC, and Wiggins, Childs, Quinn & Pantazis, LLC.
