S.L. Group Gets Slice of Explosives Settlement
June 19, 2006 —
Richard McMillan, partner in the Antitrust Group, is quoted on an antitrust probe into the explosives industry in the 1990s that ended recently with an order signed by a federal judge in Utah (the action was eventually settled). The investigation was into whether the manufacturers and distributors of commercial explosives were conspiring to fix prices, rig bids and allocate customers among themselves. McMillan was cited on his representation of mining companies that alleged they were victims of an antitrust scheme.
