Wednesday, Jan. 15 10:00 AM Hearing in antitrust trial of $26.5 billion T-Mobile / Sprint merger - Post-trial arguments in relation to the proposed $26.5 billion merger of T-Mobile and Sprint * 14 state attorneys general are attempting to block the merger, arguing that combining the two companies, and therefore having one fewer mobile carrier, would reduce competition and cost Americans billions of dollars in higher phone bills. The states' challenge is led by New York and California, and includes counterparts from 11 other states and the District of Columbia. Texas, Nevada, Colorado, and Mississippi have dropped out over the past two months after reaching separate settlements * The deal has already been approved by the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission, thanks to T-Mobile's commitment to create a brand-new mobile carrier in a deal with satellite-TV company Dish
