Can a corporate attorney be held liable under the anti-competition laws?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Amarel v. Connell, 102 F.3d 1494 (9th Cir. 1997):

Individual liability under the antitrust laws can be imposed only where corporate [attorneys] are actively and knowingly engaged in a scheme designed to achieve anticompetitive ends. To support a determination of liability under this standard, the evidence must demonstrate that a defendant exerted his influence so as to shape corporate intentions.

Brown v. Donco Enterprises, Inc., 783 F.2d 644, 646 (6th Cir.1986).
