A team of King & Spalding attorneys representing DirecTV has told the Supreme Court of the United States that the nation’s highest judicial body should deny the request of Nexstar Media Group to review a Second Circuit ruling that reversed an antitrust win — one that is wholly tied to the thorny issue of retransmission consent negotiations.
The brief in opposition of Nexstar’s April 28 petition for a writ of certiorari arrived after the court granted DirecTV’s legal counsel an extra four weeks to prepare its response.
