On Monday local time, US Judge Alacely Martinez-Holguin issued a temporary injunction suspending the merger process between Paramount and Warner Bros. The multi-state joint prosecution claims that this merger and acquisition will violate federal antitrust laws, which will eventually lead to an increase in the price of film and television services and a reduction in the supply of film and television content. The judge handed down the ruling after hearing arguments between the parties in court last Friday morning. Previously, Paramount had taken the initiative to promise that the deal would not be completed until July 22.
