(Reuters) -A group of U.S. states can intervene in a case over Hewlett-Packard Enterprise’s $14 billion acquisition of Juniper Networks, which the U.S. Department of Justice has proposed to settle and let the deal move forward, a judge said during a hearing on Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge Casey Pitts in San Jose, California said Colorado and a other states can weigh in on the deal, but did not decide whether he will probe the circumstances under which it was reached, which the states have called suspicious.
