In Written Opinion, Judge Florence Pan Delivers Knockout Blow to PRH, S&S Merger - Publishers Weekly

Today, over at the Publishers Weekly site Panzer found a post about the judge's decision against the merger of Penguin Random House (PRH) and Simon and Schuster (S&S).

After all that reading it's nap time.

The post by Andrew Albanese lists the major points from Judge Pan's written opinion which was released yesterday. The judge listed the arguments of the Department of Justice's (DOJ) case which she used in making her decision against the merger. She also listed the arguments of the publisher's lawyers which she found not credible.

Panzer says, "Judge Pan put a lot of effort into her decision."
