Court to Hold Paramount-Warner Bros. Settlement Conference in Late October

A court has scheduled a two-day settlement conference for late October regarding the antitrust lawsuit involving Paramount and Warner Bros. California AG Rob Bonta is involved in the proceedings. Magistrate judge Thomas Hixson will oversee the discussions to determine potential outcomes. This conference is a standard civil procedure and does not necessarily signal an imminent deal. Both parties are required to submit specific dates for the event to the court by this coming Tuesday.
