What happened
A proposed class action against CoStar Group Inc appears to concern antitrust claims, as indicated by the nature of suit. Docket entries also name hotel companies such as Hilton and Accor as defendants, suggesting the case may involve alleged anticompetitive conduct affecting hotel pricing or distribution. The allegations are unproven and the case is ongoing.
Do you qualify?
No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.
How to file
There is no claim to file yet. If this case reaches a settlement, a claim process will open — usually with an official settlement website and a filing deadline.
