Google urges tribunal to throw out $9.3 bln UK lawsuit over search 'dominance'

Google parent Alphabet has asked the UK CAT to throw out a mass lawsuit that accuses the tech giant of abusing its dominance in the online search market. The lawsuit – valued at up to £7 billion ($9.3 billion) – is the latest case focusing on the business practices of Google, which is currently facing a major antitrust trial in the US over its online advertising business, as well as a similar case filed at the UK CAT.
