Microsoft Settles Montana Class Action
From Associated Press
Microsoft Corp. has reached a $12.3-million settlement with Montana consumers who filed a class-action lawsuit alleging violations of state antitrust and unfair competition laws, the company said.
Similar to settlements with residents of California and Florida, the agreement calls for Microsoft to provide vouchers for consumers to buy software and desktop, laptop and tablet computers and other devices.
Microsoft still faces class-action lawsuits filed in 14 other states. The lawsuits are separate from a federal antitrust case brought by the U.S. Justice Department and states against Microsoft.
