A U.S. District Court judge last week said Prime Communications can move forward with its $20 million lawsuit against AT&T Broadband that accuses the cable-television giant of monopolization and unfair trade practices.

Prime filed the suit some weeks ago in U.S. District Court in Boston, and on Dec. 5, a judge at a preliminary hearing cleared the way for a jury trial to begin in March 2002.
