Google seeks non-jury trial in US ad tech lawsuit, filing says

Alphabet’s Google in a court filing on Thursday is seeking a non-jury trial in the US Justice Department’s lawsuit accusing the advertising and search giant of anticompetitive practices in the online advertising marketplace. The Justice Department, which filed the advertising lawsuit in January 2023, alleged the company has abused its dominance of the digital advertising business and argued that it should be forced to sell its ad manager suite.
