The Arizona Attorney General's Office has reached a $13 million settlement with Cox Communications over deceptive pricing practices.

Active Cox customers will receive billing credits, and former customers will get electronic fund transfers. This follows a previous issue where Cox was advised to stop a potentially misleading ad by the National Advertising Division.

A judge in Georgia dismissed legal challenges against the zoning of Rivian's planned $5 billion electric vehicle (EV) plant, ruling that state-owned property is not subject to local zoning regulations. The plant, which aims to produce R2 vehicles and employ 7,500 people, faced opposition from local residents concerned about environmental and lifestyle impacts. Despite a recent dip in quarterly vehicle deliveries, Rivian's production numbers are up, and the company is set to reveal its fourth-quarter earnings in February. The state of Georgia has provided record-breaking incentives for the plant, which is the largest industrial announcement in the state's history.
