United States v. General Dynamics Corporation: An Interpretation

The Supreme Court's decision in United States v. General Dynamics Corporation, et al. merits analysis on several counts. First, "[t]he decision marked the first time the [Justice Department's] Antitrust Division has lost a direct Supreme Court decision in many years-'at least 15 years,' by one antitrust lawyer's estimate." 1 And, related to this point is the significance, if any, of the four Nixon appointees to the bench ruling for the majority decision. Second, the case may be significant for the light it sheds on the Court's attitude toward the state of competition in the energy industries. This is especially relevant in view of the trend toward increased concentration in the coal industry and, more recently, the penetration by the oil industry into coal. Third, the case requires analysis to determine whether the Court correctly analyzed the facts presented in the case.
