The AMI securities case survives but remains in early stages — no liability finding or damages set. Monitor for future summary judgment motions after expert discovery closes, which could shift settlement leverage. The Hart case is a nuisance suit with no material risk to Google.

Executive Summary
Two court rulings involving Alphabet (GOOG) were issued on the same day. In Hart v. Google LLC, a pro se plaintiff's case faces likely dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and incomplete IFP application — no material impact. In AMI v. Alphabet Inc., the court denied Google's motion for partial summary judgment without prejudice in a securities case concerning Google's advertising technology, granting plaintiffs additional discovery. This is an interlocutory procedural ruling that keeps the case alive but does not determine liability or damages.
