Excerpted from the website:
- Foreign Plaintiffs Challenging Global Cartels Strike Out Again In U.S.
- With its decision affirming dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction in In re: Monosodium Glutamate Antitrust Litig., 2007 U.S. App. LEXIS 2772 (8th Cir. Feb. 8, 2007) ("MSG"), the Eighth Circuit delivered another setback to foreign plaintiffs intent on using U.S. antitrust laws to redress injuries from wholly foreign purchases allegedly subject to unified global price-fixing conspiracies. MSG is part of a growing body of law applying the Supreme Court's landmark decision in F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. v. Empagran S.A., 542 U.S. 155 (2004) ("Empagran I"), which addressed the applicability of the Sherman Act to foreign purchaser claims under the Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act of 1982 ("FTAIA").
