and several other companies must face private antitrust litigation accusing them of conspiring to inflate broiler chicken prices by reducing supply.
In a 90-page decision, U.S. District Judge Thomas Durkin in Chicago said reasonable jurors could find it more likely than not that Pilgrim's Pride, Sanderson and Tyson conspired to fix prices. But the judge also narrowed the case to cover alleged "anomalous decreases in broiler production" in 2008-2009 and 2011-2012.
He also dismissed claims against other producers including Perdue, as well as against Agri Stats, whose reports about the industry allegedly let producers monitor each other's production and pricing activities.
