In 1948, Schwegmann entered a new field of activity: litigation. The Louisiana legislature had passed a law requiring a minimum markup on alcoholic beverages at all levels of the merchandising chain. Schwegmann was convinced that stores should be able to set their own prices. He volunteered to be the [[plaintiff]] in a test case to oppose the law, and Stone agreed to represent him. "That made him a litigator. He liked it. He wanted to fight," Stone said.​
