Dr. Argue reasoned that the defendants’ conduct was consistent with independent actions, and the U.S. District Court Judge granted summary judgment on the same basis. The defendants were represented by Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. and Hogan & Hartson. Dr. Argue was assisted by EI Vice President John M. Gale and EI Senior Vice President Kent W Mikkelsen.
