Federal prosecutors are in the final stages of preparing an antitrust case against Google, according to a report, and aiming to file their case in September.
The Justice Department has been investigating the tech giant for several years.
In 2020 Google was sued both federally and by a coalition of state attorney generals for monopolizing the digital search market.
Google denied the charges, and is petitioning the judge to drop the case: a hearing is scheduled for later this month.
On Tuesday, Bloomberg reported that yet another case against Google could be filed next month - this time accusing them of monopolizing digital advertising.
Three sources told Bloomberg that investigators with the Justice Department's antitrust division are currently questioning online publishers, to finalize the details for the complaint.
The interviews are follow-ups to previous discussions, the sources said.
Google's headquarters are pictured in Mountain View, California. The company could be facing yet another antitrust lawsuit
