Oneok v. Learjet: More than a One Off?

Richard Brunell (American Antitrust Institute)

Abstract:     This article analyzes the Supreme Court’s 2015 decision holding state antitrust claims not field preempted by the Natural Gas Act. It considers the general implications of the decision for antitrust preemption in FERC-regulated industries, as well for implied antitrust immunity of Sherman Act claims and for the filed rate doctrine.
