Latham & Watkins is representing major French media in a case against Google over its refusal to pay for displaying their content in search results.
The case, brought before the French Competition Authority – the country's competition regulator – sets up a legal battle over a new EU copyright law.
Latham is representing the French media industry body known as Alliance de la Presse d'Information Générale (APIG) – a group of dozens of national and regional newspapers, including Le Monde, Le Figaro and Les Echos.
