U.S. Judge Rejects $27.5 Million Settlement in Align Technology Antitrust Case

A U.S. federal judge has turned down a proposed $27.5 million class-action settlement in a lawsuit against Align Technology, the company known for its dental products, including clear aligners. The lawsuit alleges that Align engaged in anti-competitive practices that harmed both consumers and competitors in the orthodontic market.

The judge expressed concerns regarding the adequacy of the settlement, questioning whether it sufficiently addressed the claims made by the plaintiffs. This ruling comes as a significant development in a case that has drawn attention to the competitive dynamics within the dental industry.

The plaintiffs had argued that Align's actions stifled competition and led to higher prices for consumers seeking orthodontic treatment. The rejection of the settlement means that the case will continue, potentially leading to a trial where further evidence and arguments will be presented.

This decision highlights the ongoing scrutiny of corporate practices in the healthcare sector and the legal system's role in ensuring fair competition.
