WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court is reviewing
two cases in which businesses are trying to make it harder for customers
or investors to band together to sue them.
The justices heard
arguments Tuesday in appeals from biotech company Amgen Inc. and cable
provider Comcast Corp. that seek to shut down class-action lawsuits
against the businesses.
Amgen is fighting securities fraud claims that misstatements about
two of its drugs used to treat anemia artificially inflated its stock
price. Comcast is facing a lawsuit from customers who say the company's
monopoly in parts of the Philadelphia area allowed it to raise prices
unfairly.
Last year, the Supreme Court raised the bar for some class-action
suits when it sided with Wal-Mart against up to 1.6 million of its
female employees who complained of sex discrimination.
