Porter Wright's antitrust victory highlighted in ALM's Mid-Market Report
Porter Wright's recent landmark win in a federal antitrust case on egg price-fixing was featured in the article, "Who Got the Work: Egg Conspiracy Allegations and Fortnite Leaks," which was published by ALM's Mid-Market Report on Dec. 18, 2019.
Porter Wright Morris & Arthur announced in a press release that it successfully defended egg producer Rose Acre Farms Inc. in an antitrust class action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The case was brought by 12 supermarkets, which alleged that Rose Acre and two industry groups conspired to reduce egg supply in order to drive up the cost of eggs. The jury ultimately found that there was not significant evidence to prove that such a conspiracy existed.
