The Illinois Brick Dilemma: Is There A Legislative Solution?, Edward D. Cavanagh

Faculty Publications

(Excerpt)

In Illinois Brick Co. v. Illinois, the United States Supreme Court held that in price-fixing actions brought under section 1 of the Sherman Act, only first purchasers in the chain of vertical distribution are "injured," within the meaning of section 4 of the Clayton Act, by the full amount of any overcharge. The Court's ruling bars plaintiffs who are "indirect purchasers" from offering proof that they have been injured by defendants' illegal overcharges which have been "passed on" to them by middlemen. The Court's holding reaffirmed the principles previously enunciated in Hanover Shoe, Inc. v. United Shoe Machinery …

The Scope Of Judicial Review Of Consent Decrees Under The Antitrust Procedures And Penalties Act Of 1974, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In the wake of this uncertainty, this Note analyzes the proper scope of judicial review of consent decrees. The Note argues that to further the policies embodied in the APP A, courts should undertake intense review of proposed settlements before entering them as final judgments. Both the congressional intent in enacting the APP A and the public's interest in effective enforcement of the antitrust laws support intense judicial review. The Note then demonstrates that the deferential standard that some courts have applied is derived mainly from a case that is inapplicable to the review of consent decrees. Finally, the Note …

Equal Access To Justice Act, Sidney B. Jacoby

Antioch Law Journal

The new statute entitled the Equal Access to Justice Act 1 (hereinafter Act) is of great importance because it provides, on a three year experimental basis, for the award of possibly large attorneys' fees and other expenses to private parties of modest means in successful civil actions against the government, its agencies or officials. The Act, however, is specifically not applicable in tort actions. 2 The new Act entitles certain private parties prevailing in government litigation to recover attorneys' fees, expert witness fees, and other expenses against the United States, unless the government action was "substantially justified" or "special circumstances …

Interview Notes Of Government Agents Under The Jencks Act, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Most courts that have considered the issue have concluded that the Jencks Act does not require the government to retain and produce rough interview notes. This Note examines the language and purpose of the Act to determine whether interview notes should be considered Jencks Act statements. Part I examines the policy underlying the Jencks Act and argues that the majority position sanctioning pre-trial destruction of interview notes conflicts with these statutory purposes. Part II discusses the statutory language and argues that the status of the witness as a government agent or a private individual determines the applicable section of the …

The Proper Role Of Res Judicata And Collateral Estoppel In Title Vii Suits, Charles C. Jackson, John H. Matheson, Thomas J. Pikorski

Michigan Law Review

The Article proceeds from the premise, established in Part I, that federal courts must apply preclusion principles unless Congress clearly indicates otherwise. Part II considers a number of indicators of Congress's intent, and finds no evidence to rebut the presumption that federal courts must give preclusive weight to certain state decisions. Part III then proposes general guidelines for the application of preclusion doctrines in title VII litigation.
