Court Revives District of Columbia’s Antitrust Lawsuit Against Amazon [Video]

An appeals court in Washington, D.C. on Thursday revived the district’s antitrust lawsuit against Amazon after a lower court dismiss the suit.

In its ruling, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals said a Superior Court trial judge “set too high a bar” for the District of Columbia’s complaint, according to the Associated Press (AP). The appeals court also said the district presented enough “facts to survive” an effort by Amazon to have the case dismissed.

D.C.’s lawsuit was filed in 2021, and it accuses the e-commerce company of anticompetitive practices by placing restrictions on its suppliers and third-party sellers through its website. The district’s legal complaint also accuses Amazon of inflating prices for consumers.

“We disagree with the District of Columbia’s allegations and look forward to presenting facts in court that demonstrate how good these policies are for consumers,” Amazon spokesperson Tim Doyle said on Thursday, per the AP.
