Three U.S. law firms, Boies Schiller Flexner, Morgan & Morgan, and Susman Godfrey, have requested a California federal judge to award them $217.6 million in attorney fees for their role in a browser data privacy class action against Alphabet's Google. The request follows a settlement reached earlier this month in which Google agreed to delete billions of data records related to users' private browsing activities. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Justice's landmark antitrust lawsuit against Google is scheduled for an oral ruling at 3pm this Thursday, just ninety minutes before Google's earnings call.
