The Judicial Treatment Of The Automobile Dealer Franchise Act, J. Patrick Martin Dec 1963

The Judicial Treatment Of The Automobile Dealer Franchise Act, J. Patrick Martin

Michigan Law Review

The representatives of the auto industry initially viewed the act with a jaundiced eye and warned that this special class legislation6 would radically change the existing case law by allowing the dealer to win where formerly he would have lost. However, the court decisions under the act have not borne out such dire predictions. This discussion will examine what has, in fact, been the judicial interpretation and treatment of the act.

Antitrust-Clayton Act-Admissibilty Of Criminal Conviction Entered On A Plea Of Guilty As Prima Facie Evidence In Civil Suit For Treble Damage, Arthur M. Sherwood

Michigan Law Review

In a civil action for treble damages under section 4 of the Clayton Act, the plaintiff sought to allege as prima facie evidence of a Sherman Act violation a criminal conviction entered on a plea of guilty by the defendant in an earlier prosecution by the government. The trial court sustained a motion by the defendant to strike from plaintiff's complaint any reference to the criminal prosecution. On appeal, held, reversed, one judge dissenting. A judgment entered on a plea of guilty is not a consent judgment within the meaning of the proviso to section 5(a) of the Clayton …

Trade Regulation -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Leo J. Raskind Jun 1963

Trade Regulation -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Leo J. Raskind

Vanderbilt Law Review

In Hogue v. Kroger, a retail grocer sought a declaratory judgment, under the Dairy Law of 1961, of his right to reduce the seding price of his milk (ex-trading stamps) below the statutory price by the amount of the cost of the trading stamps to a stamp-dispensing competitor. The commissioner of agriculture opposed this practice. Being responsible under the statute for enforcing compliance with the statutory price, the commissioner answered, coupling with his answer a cross-bill seeking to enjoin further sales by Hogue at the reduced cash price. The supreme court affirmed a denial of the commissioner's injunction and remanded …

Trade Regulation-Robinson-Patman Act-Price Discrimination In The Marketing Of Gasoline, Howard R. Lurie S.Ed. Mar 1963

Trade Regulation-Robinson-Patman Act-Price Discrimination In The Marketing Of Gasoline, Howard R. Lurie S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The emergence of chain stores and mail-order houses in the 1920's posed a new threat to competition; this time at the retail level. The quantity purchase discounts which large buyers could exact placed the small independent merchant at a competitive disadvantage so substantial as to cast doubt upon his continued presence in the competitive picture. To prevent these competitive advantages, which were felt to be unfair and undesirable, Congress, in 1936, passed the Robinson-Patman Act which, in part, amended section 2 of the Clayton Act. The effect of the amendment was to tighten the application of the quantity purchase defense …

Hudson Fair Trade Case - The Need For Constitutional Amendment, Richard W. Pogue Jan 1963

Hudson Fair Trade Case - The Need For Constitutional Amendment, Richard W. Pogue

Cleveland State Law Review

The Hudson case has dual significance. First, it is important in its holding of a relatively new concept in fair trade legislation-the "notice" or "implied contract" doctrine under which resellers are deemed to have entered into a legislatively defined contract by accepting goods with notice of the fair trade price limitations. This concept, previously upheld in Virginia, finds its counterpart in the current Quality Stabilization Bills pending in Congress which would include provision for a federal right to enforce resale price maintenance against resellers of branded commodities who are given prior notice of price restrictions. A second respect in which …


Jurisdiction In International Application Of United States Antitrust Laws, Hiroshi Fukuda Jan 1963

Jurisdiction In International Application Of United States Antitrust Laws, Hiroshi Fukuda

Cleveland State Law Review

However, the trend to apply United States antitrust laws to international trade agreements has given rise to another important question, namely the jurisdictional problem of antitrust laws. Many people, both in this country and abroad, criticized this trend as an abuse of power and invasion of foreign sovereignty. The objective of this paper is, therefore, to analyze the underlying theories of jurisdiction with respect to antitrust laws and to discover the existing jurisdictional limitations imposed by the courts on themselves.

Federal Antitrust Law-Mergers-An Updating Of The "Failing Company" Doctrine In The Amended Section 7 Setting, Philip Sotiroff S.Ed. Jan 1963

Federal Antitrust Law-Mergers-An Updating Of The "Failing Company" Doctrine In The Amended Section 7 Setting, Philip Sotiroff S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Even though application of section 7 has become increasingly effective, a specific exception to its coverage has been recognized by Congress and the Supreme Court. This exception is commonly referred to as the "failing company" doctrine. In short. the doctrine holds that an acquired or to-be-acquired firm which is in a "failing" condition, or the acquiring corporation, may interpose this condition as a defense to any prosecution under section 7 seeking to prevent or undo the acquisition of the failing company's stock or assets by the other. This discussion will attempt to explore the development of the doctrine, consider its …
