DEFENDANT GOOGLE INC.’S
ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION RE:
RELATED CASE
Before:
Hon. Jeremy Fogel
INTRODUCTION
Defendant Google Inc. (“Google”) hereby moves for an order relating the matter captioned
Person v. Google Inc., C 06-7297 JCS (“Person”), to this action, KinderStart v. Google Inc. C 06-
2057 JF (RS), pursuant to Civil Local Rules 3-12 and 7-11. As explained below, the plaintiffs in
both cases allege that Google is a monopolist in what they contend is a defined market for search-
related advertising online. The plaintiffs further claim that through the same specific event
involving the same online platform – Google’s introduction of quality standards in its AdWords
advertising program – Google has engaged in anticompetitive conduct in violation of federal
antitrust law.
