Description
PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge: Miami Parts & Spring, Inc.,1 a Florida corporation, brought this action against Champion Spark Plug Company,2 a Delaware corporation, Harry F. Davis, Benjamin Weldon and Patten Sales Company of North Florida, Inc.,3 a Florida corporation, to recover triple damages for alleged violations of the Clayton Act, as amended by the Robinson-Patman Act, 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 12-27, inclusive, and the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 1-8, inclusive. Champion is engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of spark plugs throughout the United States and in many foreign countries, and is the world's largest manufacturer of spark plugs. Commencing in 1937 and continuing until December 31, 1963, Miami was franchised by Champion as a distributor of Champion Spark Plugs in the Greater Miami Metropolitan Area. Champion refused to renew Miami's distributor's contract for the year 1964 and this action stems from that refusal and related facts set forth in Miami's amended complaint.
