Google will face U.S. antitrust prosecutors today in Alexandria, Virginia, where the DOJ will seek to show the company stifled competition in online advertising technology, in the search giant’s second recent showdown with the Justice Department. Google denies the allegations, saying they misconstrue lawful efforts to develop its technology and serve its own customers.

The case is an important one for efforts by U.S. antitrust enforcers to challenge alleged Big Tech monopolies, which have spanned the administrations of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Read more about the trial.

Meanwhile, law school applications rose nearly 6% this year and the July bar exam pass rates appear to be on the rise.
