Oregon withdraws delay motion in Paramount-Warner deal
Tap title to read story
Portland, Oregon. The Oregon attorney general's office on Tuesday withdrew a court motion to delay Paramount's proposed $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros, after earlier this week seeking a 60-day pause and court-ordered records. The office said Paramount had signaled it would not comply with investigative demands and agreed not to close the transaction before July 22.
Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield requested documents related to 'Project Warrior' and efforts to lobby the Trump administration; prosecutors said they will consider next steps following the withdrawal. The state retained the right to pursue records and potential legal remedies, and the July 22 non-closure date now frames any subsequent review or filings.
