MEMORANDUM
BRYANT, District Judge.
In 1976, the plaintiff won a private antitrust action in this court and treble damages were awarded. 420 F.Supp. 738. The Court of Appeals affirmed the finding of a violation of the antitrust laws but reversed this court on the measurement of damages and remanded for recomputation of damages. 593 F.2d 1173 (1978). The plaintiff has made a motion for this court to recompute damages. Based on the guidance from the Court of Appeals, memoranda from the parties, and the record in the case, I have found the plaintiff’s damages to be $4,000 and thus award him $12,000.
