No Rule for Merger Supreme Court Ruling Refocuses Jurisdiction
The State of Minnesota’s merger suit was remanded by the U S Supreme Court. Justice Hiurkin wrote the opinion for the majority. The court held federal courts lacked jurisdiction to hear the case after the state court action was removed by the Nerilerdy Securities Cogpainy. The decision notes the suit is equity to restrain violations of the antic trust act and forfeiture actions could be pursued in federal court if appropriate. The claim of property interests in the state did not influence the ruling.
