Abstract

The article focuses on horizontal restraints of trade, which are agreements between competitors that negatively impact competition. It discusses notable legal cases, including United States v. RealPage, where landlords allegedly engaged in illegal agreements through RealPage's pricing software, and United States v. Trenton Potteries Co., which established that direct price-fixing agreements are per se illegal. The article also examines various court rulings on price information exchanges, group boycotts, and conspiracies to eliminate competitors, highlighting the application of the rule of reason in assessing these practices. Additionally, it addresses how courts evaluate the legality of actions taken by sports leagues and associations under antitrust laws. [Extracted from the article]
