The view from the Summit: jurisdiction and beyond
Article Abstract:
Summit Health Ltd v Pinhas is the latest in a string of cases deliberating the extent of federal jurisdiction on interstate commerce pursuant to the Sherman Act. Congress can constitutionally regulate local activities which impact interstate commerce. The issue in the Summit case was whether allegations that there was a conspiracy to exclude Dr. Pinhas from the practice of ophthalmology in Los Angeles met the interstate commerce test of antitrust jurisdiction. The judges felt that the test was passed.

Federal Trade Commission horizontal restraint cases: an economic perspective
Article Abstract:
The FTC's cases from 1980 to 1992 involving horizontal restraint are reviewed, showing reliance on three economic theories. About three-fourths of the 81 cases are based upon theories of raising rivals' costs or one's own costs. The remainder are based upon the theory of traditional collusion. Cases from 1980 on are in the wake of American Medical Assn v FTC.
