If We Were Looking For An Antitrust Objector, to the Dart-Solo Deal. . .

Boston might be a good place to start -- at the offices of Evergreen Partnering Group Inc. Per a Plastics News report just out:


. . .Evergreen Partnering Group Inc. first filed the antitrust lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Boston last year, claiming that Pactiv Corp., Genpak LLC, Solo Cup Co., Dolco Packaging and Dart Container Corp. agreed not to partner with Evergreen, a North Reading, Mass.-based closed-loop recycler.

The five companies are part of ACC’s Plastics Foodservice Packaging Group, which was also named as a defendant. . . .

Do go read it all, but the very able federal District Court judge has allowed Evergreen to refile its antitrust and collusion suit, now that it has a lawyer to represent it. [Really not a case anyone should try pro se, but corporations in particular cannot appear pro se -- so Evergreen's CEO had to hire a lawyer.]

So -- we wait to see whether their will be a second request, here in the US -- or additional inquiries in the EU/UK.
