The U.S. government is stopping Pinnacle Property Management from using RealPage’s pricing software that shares sensitive info with landlords, which broke competition rules. Pinnacle must also set up new rules to keep things fair and help the government watch over this. People have 60 days to share their thoughts before the court makes it official.

2026-18136, United States v. KKR & Co. Inc., et al.; Proposed Final Judgment and Competitive Impact Statement

The U.S. government caught KKR & Co. Inc. for not properly reporting important business deals before they happened—16 times! Now, KKR has to pay a huge $250 million fine within 30 days to settle the case. This action helps keep big business honest and fair for everyone.

2026-16850, United States of America, et al. v. CRH PLC, et al. Proposed Final Judgment and Competitive Impact Statement

The U.S. government and Tennessee are stopping APAC-Tennessee from buying Standard Construction Group because it could hurt competition.

People have 60 days to share their thoughts before the deal is finalized, keeping the market fair and open.

2026-16112, United States et al. v. Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. et al.; Proposed Final Judgment and Competitive Impact Statement

2026-14903, United States, et al. v. OhioHealth Corporation; Proposed Final Judgment and Competitive Impact Statement

The U.S. government and Ohio are taking on OhioHealth Corporation for using sneaky contract rules that stop insurers from offering cheaper health plans. OhioHealth must now remove these rules and promise not to use them again, helping more budget-friendly options reach patients. People have 60 days to share their thoughts before the court makes it official.

2026-14935, United States v. Edwards LifeSciences Corp. and Genesis MedTech Group Limited; Proposed Final Judgment and Competitive Impact Statement

The U.S. government says Edwards LifeSciences broke the rules when it bought JC Medical from Genesis MedTech. Edwards must pay $10 million, Genesis pays $2 million, and Edwards has to get approval before buying any company working on special heart valve devices in the U.S. This keeps the market fair and protects competition in heart health tech.
