Microsoft has temporarily won a dismissal against an antitrust lawsuit from consumers challenging its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
In a filing spotted by Reuters, a federal judge in San Francisco ruled that the group of ten plaintiffs "[lacked] allegations" in the complaint they filed last year. The group claim Microsoft's ownerships of Activision Blizzard would harm consumers and competition in the video games market.
However, while US District Judge Jacqueline Corley dismissed the case, she also granted the plaintiffs 20 days to refine their lawsuit and resubmit.
