In Atl. Richfield Co. v. USA Petroleum Co., 495 U.S. 328, 331, 110 S. Ct. 1884, 1887 (1990), the U.S. Supreme Court held as follows: {{cquote|This case presents the question whether a firm incurs an "injury" within the meaning of the antitrust laws when it loses sales to a competitor charging nonpredatory prices pursuant to a vertical, maximum-price-fixing scheme. We hold that such a firm does not suffer an "antitrust injury" and that it therefore cannot bring suit under § 4 of the Clayton Act, 38 Stat. 731, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 15.
