This episode will explore the implications of the T-Mobile/Sprint court decision for regulatory approval in future deals. Joining The Deal are Melissa Scanlan, who oversees antitrust law in T-Mobile’s legal department and was closely involved in the merger and the litigation, and Dave Gelfand who was one of the lead lawyers on the Cleary Gottlieb trial team. They will discuss how the court’s decision might be used by future litigants, what it might mean for future attempts by state enforcers to diverge from federal enforcers, and lessons for future strategies to navigate deals through government review processes.
