Three major electronics manufacturers agreed to plead


The Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice announced that 3 major electronics manufacturers agreed to plead guilty to a price fixing conspiracy of large flat screen televisions and computer monitors. The conspiracy artificially increased the price on flat screens and computer monitors that these manufacturers sold to distributers and wholesalers by 40% from 2007 through 2016. H.H. Lindenwood, a large St. Louis based independent appliance dealer seeks your legal advice about filing a lawsuit seeking damages from these 3 manufacturers under Section 1 of the Sherman Act. H.H. Lindenwood can prove that it paid $1,500,000 more for the large flat screen televisions and computer monitors that it purchased from its distributors between 2007 and 2016. What is your advice?
