Tri-State Rubbish, Inc. v. Waste Management, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
BOUDIN, Circuit Judge.
The complaint in this case charged that a number of entities, public and private, were seeking to monopolize the waste disposal business and otherwise acting in violation of federal and state law. The district court dismissed the complaint for failure to state a claim. 803 F.Supp. 451. We affirm the district court with one exception: as to the predation claims against the private defendants, we do not think that state action immunity has been made out on this record, and therefore remand those claims for further proceedings.
