In charge of $Alphabet-A (GOOGL.US)$ The judge in charge of the case stated on Tuesday that the trial regarding the USA Department of Justice's proposal to undermine Google's dominance in the online search field will not be postponed to give Trump administration officials more time to modify the request.

It is understood that the USA Department of Justice proposed forcing Google to sell its Chrome browser and possibly sell the Android mobile operating system to end its monopoly in the online search field. However, President-elect Trump expressed skepticism about breaking up Google in October.

Amit Mehta, a federal judge in Washington, said that if officials from the USA Department of Justice appointed by Trump intend to modify these proposals, he will not postpone the trial scheduled for next April.

The judge stated at the hearing: "If the requested remedies need to be reassessed, it must be done as soon as possible."

In 2020, during Trump's first term, the USA Department of Justice sued Google. Mehta ruled in August that Google holds an illegal monopoly in online search and related advertising.

Under the leadership of President Biden, the Department of Justice not only proposed that google sell its globally most widely used web browser but also suggested sharing data and search results with competitors.

This comprehensive proposal also attempts to prohibit google from acquiring or investing in search competitors, query-based ai products, or advertising technology.

google called these proposals "shocking" and stated that they would harm the usa's competitiveness.

The anticipated impact of ai on the landscape of online search is expected to be a key theme in the hearings. Prosecutors indicated that they plan to summon witnesses from OpenAI, the ai startup Perplexity, $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$and $Meta Platforms (META.US)$ as witnesses.
