Antitrust
Article Abstract:
The US Supreme Court in Eastman Kodak Co v Image Technical Services ruled that interbrand competition in a primary market did not preclude the possibility of derivative market power. The decision reverses trends toward use of summary judgments in antitrust and reliance on the economic theory of the Chicago school. Lower courts should interpret this decision narrowly in relation to both summary judgments and the tying context to avoid potential anticompetitive consequences.

Attorneys' fees
Article Abstract:
The US Supreme Court in City of Burlington v Dague held that a reasonable fee for attorneys in a public interest lawsuit did not include a fee enhancement for the risk of accepting a case on a contingent-fee basis. The decision could discourage public litigation and thereby undermine enforcement of federal law in areas such as civil rights and environmental safety.
