South Dakota asks US judge to reconsider jury-trial ruling in Google adtech case

( June 27, 2025, 00:55 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: South Dakota has asked a Texas federal judge to reconsider his order granting a motion to strike a jury trial right on its deceptive-trade-practices claims in litigation challenging Google's adtech business. In a motion-to-reconsider, South Dakota said US District Judge Sean Jordan held that the state had not properly, or timely, requested any remedies from Google's alleged DTPA violations and therefore had no right to any trial for its DTPA claims. "The Court reasoned that South Dakota may seek civil penalties for DTPA violations only if it also seeks injunctive relief under SDCL section 37-24-23 — and found that South Dakota has never sought injunctive relief under section 37-24-23 here," South Dakota said. "This amounts to entering judgment on South Dakota’s DTPA claims, a profound step that the Court should take only if the clear record demonstrates that South Dakota truly intended to abandon them, or prejudiced Google with its delay."See motion-to-reconsider. ...
