Attorney General Dan Rayfield is filing a motion to require that Paramount Skydance Corporation turn over documents related to an Oregon Department of Justice (ODOJ) investigation into its proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. Attorney General Rayfield is also asking a Multnomah County judge to delay the deal from closing for 60 days while the state reviews the company’s records.

“We’re not going to let Paramount Skydance play hide the ball so they can rush through their massive merger. Oregonians have a real stake in this deal – in our film industry, in our economy, in the choices they’ll have as consumers. Paramount had every opportunity to hand over records and answer a few basic questions. Instead, it is trying to run out the clock and evade scrutiny. We’re asking the court to make sure Oregonians get the answers they’re owed before this deal closes, not after.” – AG Rayfield
