How later courts described this case

  • permitting admission of a letter into evidence during an antitrust case even though the letter was the subject of litigation in a previously settled libel suit
  • “I think it would be impossible for me to determine any individual sale, whether it had been delayed, killed or — by that event [Smart’s breach].”
  • expert testimony regarding market penetration relied on the “totally unsubstantiated assumption that the [defendant] would not take competitive steps” to protect its position

The opinion

JONES, Circuit Judge

(dissenting):

I believe the decision of the panel of this Court is right and the opinion of Judge Choate is sound. I dissent from the action of the Court en banc.
