US court rejects Motorola Mobility price-fixing appeal


ABORTED ACTION: Motorola's bid to sue companies for price-fixing has been thrown out.

A federal appeals court rejected Motorola Mobility LLC's bid to sue several Asian suppliers under US antitrust law for fixing prices of mobile phone displays sold to its foreign units.

The decision by the 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago may lessen protections against inflated prices for US consumers who buy cellphones, computers and other products whose components are made outside the country.
