P & M Distributors, Inc. v. Prairie Farms Dairy, Inc., No. 11-3145, 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 144261 (C.D. Ill. Oct. 4, 2013)

(plaintiff distributor filed an action against defendants, alleging that they violated the antitrust laws by conspiring to fix anti-competitive prices in the school district and nursing home markets, causing consumers to pay inflated prices and causing the distributor to sustain damages; the court found that the distributor’s complaint contained “just enough allegations” to set forth (1) a conspiracy between the defendants (2) which caused an unreasonable restraint of trade in the relevant markets, and (3) resulted in injury to the distributor, so as to adequately plead an antitrust injury under Section 1 of the Sherman Act; the distributor sufficiently alleged an injury of the type the antitrust laws were designed to prevent because it alleged that consumers were damaged by higher prices).
