A district judge has yet to rule on the U.S. Department of Justice’s agreement between CVS Health Corp. and Aetna Inc. James Burns spoke with S&P Global about how the judge’s scrutiny of healthcare megadeal could empower courts in future M&A cases.
Burns was quoted, “That decision has normalized ‘the concept of offering and requiring more testimony to educate the judge’ for future cases.”
"That is something that people will point to in this matter forevermore as the beginning of a practice."
