EU court adviser sides with regulators in Google's fight against EU antitrust fine
Jun 19, 2025 1:35 AM

BRUSSELS, June 19 (Reuters) - An adviser to Europe's

highest court on Thursday sided with EU antitrust regulators in

Alphabet unit Google's fight against a record

4.3-billion-euro ($4.93 billion) fine levied on the U.S. tech

giant by EU antitrust regulators seven years ago.

"Advocate General Kokott proposes that the Court of Justice

dismiss Google's appeal and, therefore, that it confirm the new

fine of 4.124 billion euros set by the General Court," the

Luxembourg-based Court of Justice of the European Union said.

Judges, who usually follow four out of five such non-binding

opinions, will rule in the coming months.

The case is C-738/22 P Google and Alphabet v Commission.

($1 = 0.8726 euros)
